The Collegian Magazine tells stories about Kenyon College, Gambier, and the surrounding Knox County area. We publish one issue a semester, allowing ourselves the opportunity to cover topics with more depth and grace than is feasible in a weekly newspaper. In addition to long feature stories, the Magazine includes photo essays and journals, statistics, and humor columns.

The Company: Kenyon College’s premiere parody musical theatre dance troupe. Founded in 2008, The Company began as a humble group of friends looking to expand the opportunity to perform musical theater on Kenyon’s campus. Over the years, the group has evolved to encompass pop, rap, alternative and spoken word music (in addition to show-tunes) - if it has a beat, we can and will dance to it. The Company is known for their explosive choreography and laugh-out-loud comedic routines. We combine an appreciation for dance, song, fashion, and performance art. The Company performs to packed audiences, both as a warm-up act for other Kenyon acapella groups, or as a standalone performance. “The Company: It Does A Body Good.”

An outdoor full length Shakespeare group.

The purpose of the group is to provide students with an opportunity to put on a show, while providing a more relaxed environment than other dramatic groups on campus. We give students the opportunity to direct, which is rarely offered through other venues. Recently, we have become the only group that produces any full-length musical theater, having produced two musicals this year. KC Players has put on four musicals in the past two years which were the only musicals put on at Kenyon during that time.
