The Seen and Unseen.

This season, Furman Theatre invites you to step into stories that reveal, reshape, and reimagine the worlds we think we know. From the magical blur between fiction and reality, to the polished chaos of farce, to the wordless expression of movement—we’re diving into the spaces where identity, perception, and empathy intersect.

Furman Theatre continues to be a creative laboratory where students lead the way in asking bold questions and telling necessary stories. Our 2025–2026 season explores how we present ourselves, how we’re perceived, and how performance can uncover truths both hilarious and profound.

Whether you’re here to laugh, reflect, or simply witness something unexpected, we’re saving you a seat. Join us in a season of wonder, wit, play, and purpose.

Single tickets go on sale for each show 2-weeks prior to opening. A Season Flex Pass (4 tickets for $40) is available for the 25/26 season.
