FIU Theatre enters a production each season into KCACTF on a “participating” level and is eligible to nominate other productions for awards. KCACTF Region 4 Festival 46 will be held February 4-8, 2014 hosted by Hollins University and the Mill Mountain Theater in Roanoke, VA.
About productions entered in the Kennedy Center American College Theater Festival (KCACTF):
The aims of this national theater education program are to identify and promote quality in college-level theater production. To this end, each production entered is eligible for a response by a regional KCACTF representative, and selected students and faculty are invited to participate in KCACTF programs involving scholarships, internships, grants and awards for actors, directors, dramaturgs, playwrights, designers, stage managers and critics at both the regional and national levels.
Productions entered on the Participating level are eligible for invitation to the KCACTF regional festival and may also be considered for national awards recognizing outstanding achievement in production, design, direction and performance.
Last year more than 1,300 productions were entered in the KCACTF involving more than 200,000 students nationwide. By entering this production, our theater department is sharing in the KCACTF goals to recognize, reward, and celebrate the exemplary work produced in college and university theaters across the nation.
