Untitled Theater Company is a site-specific, student-run theater organization founded in 2023 that produces full-scale mainstage shows each semester in unconventional venues across Berkeley. Members can contribute as actors, directors, designers, stage managers, producers, or crew. Beyond productions, the club runs a DeCal course on theater arts, an annual pitch competition where students can propose and win funding to produce their own show, and an alumni mentorship program.
