Biographical / Historical

Founded in the fall of 2003 by Colleen Rutledge (’04), Spotlight Players, a completely student-run theatre company, was originally named V-Day Loyola with their first production, The Vagina Monologues. The following year they changed their name to The Spotlight Players. The theatre company ‘put the spotlight’ on issues of social justice by producing socially conscious plays and donating all proceeds to a worthy cause relevant to the show. As a student-run theatre company, all the directing, acting, designing, and building for the Spotlight Players productions were completed by Loyola University Maryland students.
