Showline (Association of Community Theatre Inc.) |
Community Theatre is the grass roots of theatre in Australia.
The old, the new and the unique are often performed, whilst new and innovative designs and ideas are tried. Community theatre Companies in Australia stage hundreds of productions each year - all of a very high standard.
The Association of Community Theatre Inc was formed in the early 1990s after a visit to Sydney from members of the Executive of the Federation of New Zealand Operatic Societies - now called the Music Theatre Federation of New Zealand.
A steering committee was formed and in the mid 90s a band of about 20 theatre groups almost all in Sydney became founding members of the organisation.
In 1996 the first launch of SHOWLINE took place in Sydney. ACT released a brochure which listed the performances of 40 theatres in Sydney - all linked to a central
telephone number with booking details.
A function with speakers including representatives of State Government was held and the combined initiative lifted membership to about 50 theatres over the next few years.
