Brief Bit About the Theater:  

Actor’s Theatre of Charlotte was founded on the idea of bringing bold, new and innovative works to Charlotte. A pretty crazy idea given that at the time, Charlotte was pretty much the Buckle in the Bible Belt, and words like “Bold” and “Innovative” tended to make folks ‘round these parts, a wee bit nervous. Also, the founders, Dan Shoemaker and Janet Isenhart felt it was important that the artists, actors and technicians, should be paid for their skills. Granted, it did not make anyone rich, but it did let them know they were valued for their skill and professionalism.
