About M.W. Rep

M.W. Repertory Theatre Company, Etc. is a group started by students at Worcester Polytechnic Institute in 1988 during a trip to Edinburgh, Scotland taken by Masque, WPI's drama club. The founders envisioned a "fast and loose" theatre group which would explore out of the way plays and give new people a chance to act in, and to direct productions at WPI. The goal was to push the limits of what was normally done in the WPI theatre community.

In January of 1989, M.W. Rep performed its first show, a double-bill consisting of The Dumb Waiter and The Actor's Nightmare. M.W. Rep is loosely affiliated with WPI and its recognized theatre group, Masque, but there is no formal relationship, and M.W. Rep does not receive any school funds, nor official school recognition. Financially, the group is entirely dependent on the proceeds from its shows. It's just a group of students and members of the WPI community who get together to put on two shows each year.

The above is paraphrased from an article written by WPI graduate Scott Runstrom.
The original article appeared in the January 28, 1992 edition of Newspeak, then WPI's student newspaper.
