Smoking in Productions Policy
The University is a no smoking facility and the current policy doesn't make exceptions for the theatre and studio spaces. However, under a directive from Nancy Walker, V.P. Administration, if a director wants a character in either a Main Stage show or a TheatreXtra show to smoke during a play, the actor and director must both sign a smoking agreement form and a warning is posted outside the venue for performances. The student has the right to refuse to smoke in a production.
