At Ave Maria University, Dr. Curtright founded Shakespeare in Performance in 2012. He began with shows in a classroom. As each production continued to amaze and delight audiences, the calls for a theater grew. The university’s administration and donors agreed. To provide Professor Curtright’s students and program a home, the Donahue Family Black Box Theater was designed and completed in 2019.
