PUP - Princeton University Players

PUP - Princeton University Players Princeton University Players, better known as PUP, is proud to be the only student-run musical theat So join us! We have some terrific shows this year!

As an entirely student-run organization, PUP gives students the opportunity to take part in all aspects of production, including direction, design, theatre management, and performing. Last year, PUP’s shows were produced with the combined effort of over 100 actors, technicians, designers, and musicians. You can participate in a show as much or as little as you want - but once you’re in, we’re sure

you’ll want more! PUP is one of the largest performing arts groups on campus, producing as many as six musicals a season and special projects like original, student-written shows. Recent PUP alumni can be found producing, directing, and performing in the professional theatre world. Contact PUP President Paige Allen'21 ([email protected]) for more information on how to get involved.

Next To Normal: Weekend of April 3rd
dir. Emily Boyd ‘28
MD: Karin Zimba ‘27

They’re the perfect loving family on the outside. But between Diana’s bipolar episodes, her daughter’s feelings of abandonment, and her particular
attachment to her son Gabe, they’re actually anything but perfect. Though, is perfect
really normal? Next to Normal provides a raw, emotional look at the impacts of mental
health and the strength needed to face life’s challenges.
