Local Theater Company to Compete at Regional Competition!

Coal Creek Community Theater [CCCT] of Louisville, CO will compete against theatre companies from Utah, Montana and Wyoming at the American Association of Community Theater’s [AACT's] Region VII Competition this May. CCCT’s production of The Organist’s Daughter by Colorado Playwright, William C. Kovacsik, earned the right to perform at the Regional Competition by winning 1st Place at the Colorado Community Theatre Coalition Festival last June. The production also earned All State Acting Awards for all three members of the cast, and an All State Director Award and Best Director Award for director, Lynn Fleming. The original cast included Linda Marquez, Nathan Rich and Arnie Follendorf; however, due to scheduling conflicts, Steve Rausch will replace Arnie Follendorf at the Regional Competition.

The competition will take place in Orem, Utah on May 8-9. Entries will be judged by a panel of adjudicators that look for the production that is the “most fully realized.” This means that every aspect of the show: costumes, acting, directing, interpretation, and technical components all combine to create a successful and complete whole. The winner of the Regional Competition will then move on to the AACT's National Competition in Tacoma, Washington at the end of June.

This will be the first time that CCCT has competed at this level, and the company needs your help to get there! CCCT is accepting donations to help defray the costs of traveling to the competition in Utah. Supporters can donate online at https://www.ccctheater.org/buy.html or by mailing donations to CCCT, PO Box 791, Louisville, CO 80027. All donations are tax deductible and greatly appreciated!
