INFORMATION AND OVERVIEW
MISSION STATEMENT: "Committed to Creating an Atmosphere of Support Among Member Theatres."

YACTA HISTORY: The Youngstown Area Community Theatre Alliance was formed around 2002 - 2003. The reason for the absence of a specific year is simply because the organization kind of evolved rather than being one that was officially set-up or started. The original concept of the organization was to provide an organization that could work with local community theatres to not only promote their work but also to serve as a clearing house of help and information for the continued benefit of the performing arts. The performing arts is an extremely difficult business at best. On the community theatre level it approaches levels of impossibility very often. Finances at every community theatre tend to be a major problem most of the time. No theatre, professional or community, can survive today on strictly box-office sales. It is essential that all theatres, if they are to survive, take advantage of any income producing possibilities. Those opportunities vary from theatre to theatre and what their facility is able to provide to the general public. It is part of YACTA's job to help local theatres promote seasons, shows, events of various types, and to offer our help wherever possible for the benefit of all local theatres.
