Alachua Children’s Theatre was created by Ms. Amber in 2023 to share the joy of theatre with her three children and the youth of our community. Everyone who auditions for an A.C.T. production will be cast! Participating in Children’s Theatre fosters creativity, builds confidence, and improves communication skills. At A.C.T. children can practice theater technique and expand their repertoire, while making friendships and memories to last a lifetime! Ms. Amber met Assistant Director & Set Designer, Ms. Alison, when the two were in Children’s Theatre over thirty years ago. Together they lead our talented Production Team!
