Stage West Will Present Aaron Posner's JQA

BWW Review: Theatre TCU's FIDDLER ON THE ROOF Showcases Wealth of Student Talent
For the Fall 2017 semester, Theatre TCU produced a studio season made up of three successful productions.

Theatre TCU has proven time and again that they are capable of producing professional, technically thorough productions bursting with youthful student talent.
