Professional theatre in residence at Wellesley College.
Our Mission
Wellesley Repertory Theatre is an award-winning, year-round professional theatre company, in residence since 1998 on the Wellesley College campus. Founded as a summer theatre by Nora Hussey - a formidable storyteller and community-builder recognized for her lifetime of achievement on both a local and national level - Wellesley Rep productions have been lauded by critics and cherished by audiences for two decades and onwards!
