Acting Out for Good

Introducing our Little Mermaid Jr. cast! This is a fantastically talented group that we can't wait to start working with. We'll see you this November under the sea!

Thank you to all the young folks - over 60 of you! - who auditioned for our production of Disney's The Little Mermaid Jr.! Lots of first-timers, which we love to see along with the familiar faces. We're working hard on putting the cast together, so if you came to see us, look for an email soon!

You've done it again, Acting Out supporters!

Thanks to your attendance and financial support for our spring/summer productions of tick, tick...BOOM! and Come from Away, we're pleased to announce donations of $500 to the Jonathan Larson Grants at the American Theatre Wing in New York (for aspiring musical theatre creators), and $1700 to the Resiliency Project at the Flight 93 National Memorial in Pennsylvania (for the 40 memorial tree groves in honor of those who gave their lives on September 11, 2001). You truly are helping us do good in our communities, one performance at a time. Thank you!

We have one more production in our 13th season, The Little Mermaid Jr. from November 20-22. This show is open to performers of any skill level and experience from kindergarten through age 18. Keep your eyes on our page for information about auditions!

Our friends at the Embassy Theatre are all okay, but please keep them in your thoughts and follow their page if you’re not already. They’ve been a very important partner of ours, and the Acting Out community is ready to help.

EDIT WITH UPDATE:
We have amazing news! Thanks to our wonderful community support, we WILL be performing Cabaret on July 26th at 2PM at a new location! Join us for one final performance at 3 Pershing Street in the Allegany Museum Ballroom! While unlike the performance you would get in the theatre, this will be a stripped down version of the show and a truly one-of-a-kind experience!

All tickets for the original performance will still be refunded. This performance will have no admission price but donations are welcome! The box office will open at 1:00PM, doors will open to seating at 1:30PM, and the show will start at 2:00PM. Seating will be first come, first serve.

Thank you again to the community for the overwhelming support in the last 24 hours and a huge thank you to Allegany Museum for allowing us to do one final performance with you all!

Embassy Theatre community:

Late Friday night - long after the patrons, cast, and crew of Cabaret left the building - firefighters responded quickly to a small fire in the lobby of the Embassy Theatre. There is no damage to the building from the fire itself, but we were left with a lot of smoke and water.

The final two performances of CABARET (7/25 & 7/26) are cancelled; the building will remain closed to the public until cleanup efforts are complete. All tickets will be refunded within 48 hours. Please allow 5 - 7 business days for funds to return to your original form of payment.

We will share more information as it becomes available. Thank you all for your patience and support. And thank you again to the responding fire companies for their prompt and diligent service.

The Weisenmiller family was a big factor in getting Acting Out off the ground in our early years, with their kids as performers and Amy as part of the choreography team. They’re currently faced with a rare and unexpected health complication for their daughter, so we’re asking our supporters to help them out as they navigate what’s next. Thank you!
