Why Give to Lights Up!
The money raised for “Lights Up!” has allowed the ACU Theatre to dramatically increase opportunities for the department by helping fund:
- Agents and casting directors from New York City and other regional areas invited to attend our Senior Showcase. This is an effort to gain our graduates representation in the professional world of performing.
Workshops throughout the year provided by theatre in dance, design, vocal and acting techniques, etc. - Assistance for our students to attend unified auditions and conferences.
Guest designers and artists, accompanists, support staff in costume and scenic shops, etc. - Various equipment needs that face the department from year to year.
In short, the department has come to depend on “Lights Up!” to enable the continued commitment to excellence.
