Welcome To ACT
OUR STORY
ACT was created in 1995 by a group of dedicated, theatre-loving individuals on Prince Edward Island. Since then it has presented top-quality productions, including blockbuster musicals (Jesus Christ Superstar, HMS Pinafore, The Rocky Horror Show, Sweeney Todd); strong dramas (The Crucible, Julius Caesar, Waiting for Godot, Macbeth); classics (The Mousetrap, The School for Scandal); delightful comedies (Noises Off, Lend Me a Tenor, Midsummer Night's Dream); and much more. In 2020, ACT is celebrating its 25th anniversary. To read more about the history of ACT and it's beginnings : 'What's in a name?'

Looking for a new challenge? The Board of Directors for ACT is looking for new faces. Experience is not needed, and we would welcome people who haven't necessarily been in the community theatre circle before. Duties- monthly meetings for 1-2 years and possibly other tasks depending on your portfolio. Write to for more information and to express interest or to nominate someone! AGM will be in August !
POSTPONED UNTIL FURTHER NOTICE
DUE TO COVID-19
Written by Michael Frayn, this show presents the madcap misadventures of a touring troupe of actors, their bitingly sarcastic director, and their overworked crew as they attempt to rehearse and perform a flop of a farce entitled Nothing On. ACT’s production of this ‘farce to end all farces’ will (fingers crossed) appear sometime on stage in 2020. Tickets are $25 and will available eventually at www.ticketpro.ca and at the Florence Simmons box office.
