Our Theater Arts Center was built by Quinnipiac University in 2017. It hosts the theater, music, and other various arts programs. Fourth Wall uses this building for rehearsals, shows and events. This facility features a black box theater, a costume shop, a design studio, a scene shop, a lighting and management booth, and academic spaces.
We are a very close-knit community who welcomes and encourages other students to get involved in our productions and events. Through many hours of rehearsals and rewarding performances, students create lasting friendships while having the time of their lives.
We pride ourselves on producing shows and sharing our work with the student body and community. All shows produced by Fourth Wall are completely student-run. Students act, direct, stage manage, light design, set design, sound design, and advertise/promote all of our shows.
The Executive Board is a group of Fourth Wall members elected by the Fourth Wall community to organize events, uphold the ideals of the organization, and make Fourth Wall an inclusive, enjoyable group for all of its members. The duties of the different executive board members are outlined thoroughly in our constitution, available on DoYouQU.
