About the HRDC

Founded in 1908 as the Harvard Dramatic Club, the Harvard-Radcliffe Dramatic Club is an umbrella organization for campus theater at Harvard College. The HRDC directly oversees two student productions on the Loeb Mainstage each semester and about four or five productions in the Loeb Ex, a blackbox space. Additionally, the HRDC organizes Common Casting, Backstage Week, and numerous other events, including panels, master classes, and formals. It also works to connect students to the professionals at the nationally regarded American Repertory Theater, with whom the HRDC shares the Loeb Drama Center.

The Harvard Ballet Company presents Dawn! Running November 16-17 and 21-22 on the Loeb Proscenium. Tickets free with HUID on November 22. Dawn is defined as “the beginning of a phenomenon or period of time, especially one considered favorable.” With exciting new works, reimagined classical repertoire, and new professional opportunities for our dancers, Dawn symbolizes the growth and rebirth of Harvard Ballet. Through tenacity, hard work, and optimism, ballet dancers are pillars of growth and success. Dawn encapsulates these qualities and places them onstage. This show will connect audiences and dancers alike and stand as a true testament to ballet’s ability to heal, unite, inspire, and radiate light.
