"IT WILL BE OUR PRIDE TO UPREAR THOSE MASSIVE WALLS OF DESTINY, AND HEAVE ON OUR SHOULDERS THE STONES OF YOUR NEW TROY."
-VIRGIL, THE AENEID

What is ATC?

Aeneid Theatre Company is an established student organization pushing the boundaries of USC student theatre via opportunities for interdisciplinary collaboration, individual growth, and community enrichment.

The company is named after Roman poet Virgil’s The Aeneid,  an epic poem telling the story of Aeneas, the legendary Trojan who traveled to Italy and founded what would later become Rome. The Aeneid is a story of Trojan determination, might, and ultimate success as they fight to create a remarkable future.

ATC challenges and contributes to USC student theatre in a similar fashion.
