ACT ANDOVER TAKES NEW SPACE
Andover Community Theatre ( ACT Andover) has relocated to a permanent home at the Mill Building on 250 Canal Street in Lawrence, MA. The approximately 2,000 square feet of general space will be used primarily for rehearsals, costume design, set construction for upcoming shows and storage for past productions.
Charles Gracy, Artistic Director and co-founder of ACT, is passionate about the art form of Community Theatre and it is extremely important for him to keep this entertainment option available to all. Charles has dedicated himself to teaching all aspects of the theatre and plans to offer classes in all theatre disciplines in the near future.
Mark Gracy, Executive Producer and co-founder of ACT is very pleased with their new space and commented, “I am also happy that ACT will be part of the enhancement to the quality of life for residents of Lawrence as the city continues itʼs economic revitalization”.
This announcement is certainly exciting news for all ACT members, ACT sponsors, previous ACT audience attendees and all who support Community Theatre in general and ACT specifically.

Cinderella Comes to Andover MA Oct 29th - 31st

Andover, MA Cinderella the Musical by Rogers and Hammerstein comes to Andover. ACT Andover presents Cinderella October 29-31. Tickets are on sale now. Order on-line at the ACT Andover website or call 978-276-9568. Tickets are going fast. Don't miss out on this great show! The timeless enchantment of a magical fairy tale is reborn with the Rodgers & Hammerstein hallmarks of originality, charm and elegance. Originally presented on television in 1957 starring Julie Andrews, Rodgers & Hammerstein's CINDERELLA was the most widely viewed program in the history of the medium. Its recreation in 1965 starring Lesley Ann Warren was no less successful in transporting a new generation to the miraculous kingdom of dreams-come-true, and so was a second remake in 1997, which starred Brandy as Cinderella and Whitney Houston as her Fairy Godmother. As adapted for the stage, with great warmth and more than a touch of hilarity, the hearts of children and adults alike still soar when the slipper fits. This Enchanted Edition is based on the 1997 teleplay.
