Latenite Theatre is a Columbia performing arts group that produces an anthology of short student-written plays every semester, with a reputation for general chaos and irreverence.
Latenite was created in 1995 by a group of Theatre and English majors who wanted to produce their own original works. They offered their innovative theatrical fare after other events on campus were over; hence the name Latenite Theatre. Fifteen years later, Latenite continues to evolve while maintaining its commitment to the student playwright. They have a simple purpose: to offer playwrights the opportunity to see their work on stage, giving them freedom to experiment, to take artistic risks, and above all, to have fun in a non-competitive artistic environment.
In recent years, there has been significant crossover between Latenite and KCST. This is mostly do to the Cassanova-esque behavior of current Latenite Presidents Jacob Rice and Zack Sheppard. Also on the board is Mke Kennelly, who just incites race riots at 999. Finally there's Jessie Cohen, who is the Barnard babe of the Board (and likes it that way).
