Join us at the Shindig!

Register today...and plan to bring a show!

Join the WSCTA and the Bellingham Theatre Guild for a fun, inexpensive day of workshops, networking, and entertainment at Shindig 2008!

Now is the time for all Washington community theatres to plan for Kaleidoscope 2009 and AACTFest 2009, to be held right here in the Evergreen State. To help you kick-start your process, we've built a great day, featuring:

—A workshop/panel/keynote on getting ready for AACTFest 2009. Gain insight from those who've taken their productions to the state and national festivals.

Keynote Presentation Rick Kerby Managing Artistic Director, Manatee Players

—Opportunity to meet up with other community theatre volunteers and staff. Share ideas, learn from others' successes and challenges, and get reinvigorated about the work you do for your community.

—And of course, entertainment. Bring a short show and join in the fun! Find submission forms and information to the right.

Come join in the fun!
