Rounding up community theaters around the state

The Cheyenne Little Theatre Players (CLTP) is hosting the 2009 Wyoming State AACT (American Association of Community Theatre) Play Festival in Cheyenne, March 13-14, 2009 at the Mary Godfrey Playhouse. The event will feature sixty minute performances by Wyoming community theatres; networking opportunities; and workshops on fundraising, acting, and historical accuracy in set design, costuming and other production aspects in the performance of period plays and musicals.

Performances will be judged by AACT certified adjudicators from Colorado, Nebraska, and Missouri. Community theatres interested in participating can find entry information, the AACTFest 2009 Handbook, and a preliminary calendar of events at the CLTP’s website,

Anyone may purchase tickets to attend performances or, for a small registration fee, attend workshops. More information on tickets and workshop fees will be available on the CLTP website in mid-January, 2009. The Wyoming State AACT Play Festival offers exciting opportunities for everyone interested in live theatre.
