Polaris Performance Company

POLARIS PERFORMANCE COMPANY

Northern Vermont University - Johnson

Dibden Center for the Arts

POLARIS PERFORMANCE COMPANY honors the north star and our Performance, Arts, and Technology department's commitment to create and present theatrical events which engage our audiences and challenge us to grow as artists. Our productions are a guiding light of sorts, pointing us all towards a singular goal of discourse and discovery. 

This company represents all technicians, designers, managers, actors, musicians, and activists that work on our faculty-directed mainstage theatrical productions. We have intentionally used the word "performance" instead of "theatre" in our name to keep with the multi-disciplinary focus of our Performance, Arts, and Technology program. Our shows incorporate music, choreography, design, and social justice and activism into all of our mainstage productions which are also all PAT concentrations. 

SATELLITE is an off-shoot of the Polaris Performance Company. SATELLITE is home for all of the student-led productions in Dibden and offsite as well. These productions include: student-directed theatrical pieces, dance performances, musical recitals, immersive environmental builds, and experimental combinations of all of these.
