Wisconsin's
​AACTFEST '23

AACTFest, the festival process that culminates in a national theatre festival, is sponsored by AACT and is held in odd-numbered years. AACTFest presents a forum for community theatres from AACT's 10 regions to enter productions for adjudication at the national level.
 
·       To provide an optimum learning experience through festival entry, which affirms, supports, and nurtures community theatre companies as they strive toward excellence in theatrical productions.
·       To stimulate and inspire community theatre companies to strive for the best work possible and to recognize them for their achievement through an appropriate adjudication process.
·       To provide a learning experience in artistic, technical, and management areas for people in attendance through performances, adjudication, and workshops.
·       To develop enlightened and discerning audiences for community theatre.
Many criteria are in place to achieve the aforementioned goals. Among the most significant are:
·       All theatre companies must meet the same eligibility standards and requirements.
·       Maximum time limits are 60 minutes performance time; 10 minutes set-up time and 10 minutes strike time.
·       Qualified and impartial adjudicators are essential to the success and fairness of the festival process.
·       A production must be performed in the same form as previously adjudicated.
·       The house must be closed during each performance.
·       The Festival Commission Representative will make the final determination in all matters of dispute during a festival.
·       The AACTFest Handbook and related forms are available in Acrobat/PDF form from the AACTFest Handbook page.
·       Questions about the festival process may be addressed to the AACT Office at info@aact.org
