SMU StageIT
ABOUT US
Stageit is SMU’s premier theatre club, providing its students the platform to hone their craft and build a fun, loving and tight-knit community!
Established in 2002, students are given the opportunity to delve into the numerous aspects of theatre namely acting, script writing, directing, producing and the behind the scenes of what makes a drama a success.
In addition, our trainings and rehearsals can make you confident, sharpen your communication skills, stimulate your creativity, and connect you with fellow students!
If you’ve always wanted to be on Broadway, then joining Stageit is a no brainer!
While our productions and rehearsals are fun, they also have purpose. We aim to make meaningful theatre experiences, touching on subjects that deserve to be talked about. We believe everyone has a voice, and art is a way to amplify these voices!
KEY EVENTS
Stageit has put up a pre-recorded production earlier in the year, in March, titled Almost, Maine, which was screened to the public recently in May 2022. We will also be participating in SMU Arts Festival this year, a festival that showcases the Arts scene in SMU which is scheduled for September 2022.

Yes, you can! Members do not need prior experience, only the thirst to learn and the hunger to create. Our training sessions ensure that you’re equipped with the skills required. As long as you’re committed, you’ll have nothing to worry about.
That’s the best part about our CCA! There’s something for everyone. We have numerous roles in production which cover aspects of writing, directing, producing, costume, lights, sound and props.
We conduct exercises that focus on physical and voice warm-ups. We also hold workshops about specific forms of theatre (i.e physical theatre) and other technical tools like script analysis and working on text.
We put up 1 internal production around March. 1 school-wide performance around September annually along with smaller-scale seasonal events such as V’day and Halloween. Everyone will be involved either as actors or as crew :)
