AACT is now accepting nominations for the National AACTFest Adjudication Panel for AACTFest 2027. We are seeking strong, experienced candidates to serve as adjudicators.

The curtains have closed on an unforgettable week in Des Moines, and we are proud to celebrate the AACTFest 2025 Award Recipients! From standout performances and technical excellence to inspiring storytelling and community spirit, this year’s productions showcased the very best of community theatre.

Congratulations to all the theatres, artists, and volunteers who brought their passion to the national stage!
