About Vertigo
Vertigo exists to afford students the opportunity to have their original scripts realized into full-fledged productions. Through producing student written theater, Vertigo hopes to be a creative and dynamic presence on campus, which encourages taking artistic risk. Vertigo is the only student theatre organization on campus that produces entirely student-written work.
We strive for our shows to have a life outside of Northwestern. Our 2009 production of Cephalopod received its New York City premiere at the New York International Fringe Festival and our 2008 production of Mild, Non-injurious Physical Contact debuted at the Manhattan Repertory Theatre in Fall 2009. Clay has been produced by the Lincoln Center Theatre, About Face Theatre, and the Lookingglass Theatre Company. Many of our playwrights enter their work in professional festivals and workshops around the country.
