Our mission is to serve and support the University Theatre.

Your support of the University Theatre at the University of Kansas provides the valued resources that enable the students, faculty, and staff to hone their craft not only in the classroom, but through practical experience in the rehearsal room, on stage, and through professional conferences, workshops, and festivals.

Founded in 1980, Friends of the Theatre (FROTH) serves as a support organization for the University Theatre and its programs, providing members with opportunities to connect with and offer support for student actors, directors, and designers, plus faculty and guest artists. Friends of the Theatre plans and hosts receptions prior to "Main Stage" productions, and in addition to enjoying exceptional performances together, members work to encourage broader awareness and appreciation of the KU theatre program throughout the community.
