EXECUTIVE PRODUCER, RUDE MECHANICALS

Rude Mechanicals is a University of Michigan student run theatre group fostering community and inciting creativity by providing students across the University the opportunity to work on all aspects of a full-scale production. From costumes, to actors, to set design, directors, stage managers and producers, all aspects of a Rude Mechanicals production are run by students, in collaboration with University faculty and resources. Michael Newberry and Christopher Nitchie founded Rude Mechanicals in the Fall of 1996. Since then, Rude Mechanicals has consistently produced one dramatic play each academic semester in either the Lydia Mendelssohn or Arthur Miller Theatre.
