Professional theatre in residence at Wellesley College.
Our Mission
Wellesley Repertory Theatre is an award-winning professional theatre company, in residence since 1998 on the Wellesley College campus. Founded as a summer theatre by Nora Hussey - a formidable storyteller and community-builder recognized for her lifetime of achievement on both a local and national level - Wellesley Rep productions have been lauded by critics and cherished by audiences for two decades and onwards!
The Wellesley Repertory Theatre Grant
Wellesley Repertory Theatre, in partnership with Wellesley College Theatre, offers a project-based grant for graduates. Through the WRT Grant Program and Festival, Wellesley Rep continues its core mission to support and celebrate theatre-making Wellesley grads out in the world from our shared starting place of Wellesley College.
