Could Your Theatre Be Part of Illinois' Largest Celebration of Community Theatre?
The 2026 Illinois Community Theatre Fest: Come Together is more than a competition—it's an opportunity to showcase your work, receive valuable feedback from theatre professionals, connect with fellow community theatre artists, and represent Illinois on the path to regional and national recognition through AACTFest.
Not sure if your theatre should compete? Have questions about the process, requirements, costs, or benefits?
Join representatives from AACTFest and the Illinois Theatre Association Community Theatre Division for an informal Q&A designed specifically for Illinois community theatres. We'll answer your questions, walk through what to expect, and help you determine whether this exciting opportunity is right for your organization.
Whether you're seriously considering participating in the competition or simply curious about what the festival offers, we invite you to join the conversation and discover how your theatre can be part of this statewide celebration of community theatre excellence.
Bring your questions. Bring your curiosity. Come explore what's possible for your theatre.
