The thrust stage of the 500-seat Jentes Family Auditorium (inspired by the Royal Shakespeare Company’s Swan Theatre) provides an intimate, immediate relationship between the actors and the audience, who sit around three sides of the stage.
The building also housed the Carl and Marilynn Thoma Theater, a 200-seat black box. Smaller musical and comedic performances are offered in this space.
