Complete Show-by-Show History
Ann Arbor Civic Theatre was founded in 1929 (a year after the first Academy Awards were presented!). After 4 years of organizing, the theatre presented its first drama, The Late Christopher Bean. The performance venues have changed, the offices and personnel have changed, but we are still here. Seventy-five years and over 450 shows later, we continue to provide theatre opportunities for all members of the community, as well as to provide quality entertainment for Southeast Michigan and Northeast Ohio.
A2CT is one of the few theatre companies around that always casts its shows based on open auditions. That means everyone has a chance to get on the Civic Theatre stage. New volunteers are welcomed as well. In the average season, Ann Arbor Civic Theatre utilizes over 350 people both in front of the footlights and behind the scenes. A2CT is also proud to promote partnerships with the community.
