<p>ok, so ive been involved in my town's musical theater group for 4 years now (trumpet in the orchestra) and it's really starting to grow on me. Is there a big theater scene at MIT? Ill be a freshman this fall, but im not planning on pursuing a performing minor or anything. is there some theater group that allows one to join, regardless of their amount of experience or expertise? btw, ill be rooming in next house- which i hear also has some production every year. umm also, is there any opera group- im kinda interested in getting into that too- but only for orchestra - no singing for me :)</p>
<p>Lots of theater options here. This is not meant to be an exhaustive list, but these links that will get you started in the right direction:</p>

<p>Ha, well...I'll be doing a lot of musical theater, because I love it.</p>
<p>I saw a rendition of Company by the Musical Theatre Guild and it was quite good.</p>
<p>Ben got to this one first, it seems.</p>
<p>Welcome to CC Mike - and ignore the extra "that" in my sentence above... d'oh!</p>
<p>Ha, thanks. Figured I'd join after lurking for over 8 months :p</p>
<p>MIT Musical Theatre Guild's fall show is Star Wars: The Musical. How awesome is that?</p>
<p>that's sweet. haha, you would never find something like that in my town- we only do so-called "classics." my town's youth theater organization just had its 40th anniversary last week- pretty cool</p>
