Little Women | 2022

48 Hour Film Festival | 2020
In a weekend of sleepless fun, teams of writers, actors, directors, and editors race to produce an original short film in under 48 hours!

Firebringer the Musical | 2020
While we were not able to fully produce Firebringer, due to COVID-19, we had almost reached tech week! This student-run production was directed, designed, choreographed, and performed by students from all different majors, class year, and experience levels.
Hand to God | 2019
As our only performed production of the 2019-2020 school year, Hand to God was certainly a success! Directed by Juliet Mace, this 5-person play drove audiences to fits of laughter! With puppets, classic tunes, and a wildly hilarious cast, this completed production garnered great reviews!
24 Hour Play Festival
On your mark, get set, go! Within 24 hours you and your team are in charge of writing, directing, and acting out a play! During our 24 hour play festival, our amazing writers, actors, and directors put together comedies and dramas for our sizable audience!
Pool (No Water) | 2018
An aerial production of the play Pool (No Water), by Mark Ravenhill. This show combined acting with athleticism, exploring a deep friendship full of jealousy, arts, fame, injury, and substance abuse. RTG, in collaboration with Weightless Aerial Company, created a piece of art different from anything the McCoy had done via acrobatics and an unconventional script style with nameless characters and sporadic, overlapping dialogue.

Gruesome Playground Injuries | 2018
