What is WSCTA?
The Washington State Community Theatre Association (WSCTA) has been representing theatres in the state since 1972. The overall goal of WSCTA is to assist, communicate and coordinate activities, resource programs and services that aid and foster the development, quality, education, and growth of community theatres in Washington State. WSCTA is a member of the American Association of Community Theatres (AACT) and, along with the states of Alaska, Oregon and Idaho, comprise AACT Region IX. WSCTA sponsors Kaleidoscope, the biennial state community theatre festival to select the best productions to represent Washington as part of the national AACTFest cycle. WSCTA membership is open to both individuals and organizations
