Champaign Urbana Drama Makers sparked from an idea in 2023 by Jordan Rinkenberger, who was 16 years old at the time. It unraveled into an operating community theater organization, with productions in the summer months. After the sold out run of our inaugural show, Carrie: The Musical, in June 2024, our first 24 hour musical, The Addams Family, in June 2025, and our thrilling production of Gypsy in July 2025, we hold a reputation of producing quality productions for audiences in Central Illinois and beyond.
