Theatre Intime

Theatre Intime Princeton University's only independent, student-run theatrical venue, staging premier productions f Theatre Intime was born.

In February of 1920, a group of Princeton student thespians staged their first production. Their theater was a dormitory room, their curtain a blanket hung over a string. An eager audience of four watched an intrepid cast of five perform a parody of Nijinski and the Ballet Russe. The goal for the 1921-1922 season was a real theatre building: Murray Hall, a chapel then used by the Philadelphia Soci

ety. Theatre Intime, the group that still maintains the Hamilton-Murray Theater's operations, takes its name from the French word for "intimate," the best way to describe the 200-seat theater. From aspiring playwrights to Broadway-bound actors to future professional directors, Intime has provided theatrical support and facilities for generations of Princeton students. Congregating at Intime, they work together with vigor and youthful enthusiasm to make their theatrical dreams into realities. Since its inception, all of Intime's shows have been produced without any University support. Students are solely responsible for every aspect of the theater - from acting to directing, fundraising to administrating. Theatre Intime has provided the finest quality entertainment for the student body and the surrounding community for more than ninety years. We invite you to join us for another unforgettable season.

This q***r tragi-comedy by Madeleine George retells the ancient tale of the Bacchae, recasting Dionysius as butch landscaper Diane and her cult of mortal followers as suburban housewives in Red Bank, New Jersey. Come see what it takes to escape the “new normal” at Theatre Intime next weekend! Directed by Pixley Marquardt ‘27🌳🌿🏺⛈️
