Theatre Intime
Theatre Intime is an entirely student-run dramatic arts not-for-profit organization operating out of the Hamilton Murray Theater at Princeton University. Intime receives no direct support from the university, and is entirely acted, produced, directed, teched and managed by a board of students that is elected once a semester. "Students manage every aspect of Theatre Intime, from choosing the plays to setting the ticket prices."[1]
History
[edit]Theatre Intime was founded in 1920 by a group of Princeton undergraduates;[2] in 1922 it took over the Hamilton Murray Theater as its stage. It has presented the American premieres of several plays by prominent creators, including Jean Cocteau's The Typewriter and W. H. Auden's Age of Anxiety.[3] Members of the troupe have included Jimmy Stewart,[4] Joshua Logan,[5] Larry Strichman,[6] William Hootkins,[7] John C. Vennema,[8] Roger Berlind,[9] Mark Feuerstein,[10] Charles Scribner, Clark Gesner,[11] Richard Greenberg,[12] Winnie Holzman,[13] Mark Nelson,[14] and Wentworth Miller.[15]
In the late 1920s, the group spawned a summer theater project, the University Players, whose early members included Stewart, Logan, and Henry Fonda. Later, a semi-professional summer company was founded by Charles Bernstein, class of 1967, and Jon Lorrain and Geoff Peterson, class of 1969. It was called 'Summer Intime.' In its first season the company produced The Night of the Iguana, Amphitryon 38, The Trial and Arms and the Man. It paid salaries to its acting company by selling subscriptions to the Princeton community. Some years later the name of the summer company was changed to Princeton Summer Theater.
In November 2022, Theatre Intime celebrated its centennial after delays due to the COVID-19 pandemic.
Board
[edit]The Intime board is composed entirely of current undergraduates. It is divided into two levels, the Managing Board, which includes roles such as Costumes Manager and House Manager and is elected every semester, and the Executive Board, which is headed by the General Manager and Production Manager and is elected once a year at the beginning of the spring term. The board is responsible for the maintenance and running of the theater as well as choosing the season every year from a list of submitted proposals.
