Mission:
The North Brunswick Drama Group provides the opportunity for participants to create high quality, educational, and accessible theater productions in a welcoming, supportive, no-cut environment through two annual main stage productions and additional special projects.

History:
Since its founding in 1970, the North Brunswick Drama Group (NBDG) has produced over 50 years of exceptional community theater at the North Brunswick Township High School. The program started with one annual production in March and after five years added a young adult program with annual summer productions. In the summer of 2023, the program produced its first mainstage production since the Covid-19 pandemic. For the first time, the program included all ages from 13-80+. The production gave parents and children a chance to participate in theater together; something none of them had been able to in other theater groups.

Goals:
While the main goal and purpose of any theater company is to create high quality productions; for NBDG it is equally important to make those productions accessible for participants and audiences alike. No-cost no-cut theater programs allow for people from all walks of life to participate. This allows for low-income individuals to participate without the burden of a participation fee like many other programs charge. Additionally, actors are not discriminated against for lack of experience or neruodivergency. In each production there are several participants who have never participated in any theater programs before and others struggle with things such as autism, agoraphobia, ADHD, etc. It’s important to the NBDG team that all productions are welcoming and accommodating to all participants and their unique needs.

Affiliations:
The North Brunswick Drama Group is a proud member theatre of the NJ Association of Community Theatres (NJACT).
