42nd Volunteer party - 34th Annual ACTie awards
31st Anniversary in Capitol Theatre
Aberdeen Community Theatre celebrated a successful 2023 Season, and honored hundreds of volunteers at its annual Volunteer Party on January 20, 2024.
ACT relies on volunteers to fill a wide variety of roles backstage, on stage, and off stage, in order to support our mission of providing quality entertainment and opportunities for people of all ages.
Hundreds of volunteers sing, dance, act, build sets, make costumes, operate lights and sound, do hair and makeup, usher, assist with office or facility tasks, and much more - every year. Their generous gifts of time and talent are vital to our success: we simply could not do it without our volunteers. We are grateful to each and every one of you for "GETTING INTO THE ACT!!"
Here's a look at this year's "ACTie" awards.
Special note: any volunteers who were unable to attend the awards event may pick up their certificates at the ACT office, 417 S. Main Street, during normal business hours.
