Educational and Outreach Activities
In addition to theatrical
enterprises, The American Century Theater is dedicated to
serving the community in a variety of ways. Drastically
reduced
group rates
are available for senior citizens, students and non-profit
organizations.
Subtext, our periodic
newsletter, contains historical, critical, and analytical
features about each production (e-mail us for free
subscription);
Audience Guides
are prepared for each production; post-show discussions
are held for selected productions with directors,
designers and actors.
Affordability
Because The American Century
Theater strives to create theatrical experiences that
entire families can watch, enjoy and discuss long
afterward, and because we believe that theater should be
available to the entire commuity, maintaining affordable
ticket prices is a major objective. Tickets cost $26-29,
$23 for students and seniors. . Reduced group rates are
also available. Subscribers pay only $104 to $188 for a
five-show season, with free admittance to staged readings.
TACT is also the area's only
professional theater that
admits all children free of charge with a paying
adult. We are determined to make theater-going a
family affair again, one that you don't have to be wealthy
to enjoy. Please take advantage of this unique benefit,
and tell your friends.
Community Support
TACT is supported in part by Arlington County through the Arlington Commission for the Arts and the Cultural Affairs Division of the Department of Parks, Recreation and Community Resources; the Virginia Commission for the Arts and the National Endowment for the Arts; and many generous donors.
