Wig and Buckle Theater Company

Live Theater, by Students

Founded in 1935, the Wig and Buckle Theater Company is proud of its tradition of providing quality live theater produced and performed by students for the LVC campus and the central Pennsylvania community.

The oldest continually operational student organization on campus, Wig and Buckle annually produces three to four shows a year. Wig and Buckle also serves as the resident theater company for the LVC English Department’s Theater Concentration, playing a vital co-curricular role in the training and application of students’ theater skills.

Wig and Buckle is open to all LVC students and meets every Friday at 4 p.m. in Leedy Theater.

Wig & Buckle presents Sorority House of the Dead

It’s 1987 and the totally tubular sorority sisters of Delta Pi Sigma are looking for new blood. When “brainiac” Tonya, “Madonnawannabe” Deb and “working girl” Janet enter the rush party of their “own free will,” they soon discover that the sisters are “like, totally vampires” under the command of the eternally youthful house mother, Mrs. B. And when Mrs. B lays eyes on Janet she becomes convinced that Janet is the reincarnation of her long-lost companion. As Deb goes missing and Janet falls under Mrs. B’s spell, it’s up to Tonya and southern belle Sissy (with some help from a totally bodacious vampire boy) to destroy the nest of vampires and rescue Janet. Pop-culture references, musical montages, aerobics dance numbers and even a “letterbox” that flies onto the stage to create cinematic compositions.
