  • Aactfest History

    Aactfest History

    AACTFest History AACTFest had its beginnings in 1957. At that time, the first World Festival of Amateur Theatre (Le Festival Mondiale du Théâtre Amateur) was held in the principality of Monaco under the high patronage of Their Serene Highnesses Prince Ranier and Princess Grace. The World Festival of Amateur Theatre was, and is, the official festival of the International Amateur Theatre Association (AITA/IATA). The typical American definition of amateur, implying a relative lack of skill, is not accepted by AITA/IATA. Amateur is used in the context of “to love”; thus, an amateur is one who does something for love and pleasure rather than for monetary remuneration. While AITA/IATA handles the international aspects, the festival itself is almost entirely a Monégasque production organized by the Studio de Monaco, home of the Cercle Artistique Monégasque d’Amateurs de Théâtre. Random theatres from America took turns representing the U.S. at this quadrennial international event. After eight years, the World Festival organization contacted the American National Theatre and Academy (ANTA). Through the offices of Princess Grace, ANTA was asked to provide input as to what theatres from the U.S. should attend the World Festival. ANTA felt it would be more appropriate to pass the invitation on to the American Community Theatre Association (ACTA). ACTA was the community theatre division of the seven- year-old American Theatre Association (ATA) umbrella organization. (In 1965 ACTA consisted of approximately 12 to 14 community theatres and had a membership of 40 to 50.) Howard Orms, the President of ACTA, contacted several theatres with no success.

It evolved from a religious Theatre of ceremony known as the Dionysus dithyramb, where 50 men Birthplace of dressed as satyrs would chant a theatre. choral song to the god Dionysus. • Only 1 to 3 actors performed 1st Actor • The chorus sang and danced but Thespis did not speak Rome We’re like the Greeks… only different! We like war and comedy! The Romans modeled their theatre after the Greeks. But rather than promoting moral values and philosophies, they stripped those things out. They kept the scandals and smut and left the religious messages out. They made fun of the middle class, and loved the gore and violence. Fly Over View of Musical Theatre History Medieval Times Rome Athens Medieval Europe Medieval Europe European Society was largely run by the Christian church. The Church did not like theatre. So they went in the complete opposite way from the Romans. • Almost all music was religious • Choirs used same Latin lyrics to different tunes • Street performers put on morality plays Performed in inn yards, pageant wagons, in the streets • Dance was evil – only of great cities, in the halls of knights, on top of hills or evil characters in play mountains. Stage production was temporary and could dance expected to be removed upon the completion of the performances.
