ACT GALA: SEASON ANNOUNCEMENT 2024

THIS YEAR'S GALA IS CURRENTLY RUNNING A WAIT LIST. TO BE ADDED TO THE WAIT LIST PLEASE EMAIL [email protected]

Join us on Friday, June 7 for ACT of CT's highly anticipated ANNUAL GALA and be amongst the very first to find out which productions will be included in the theatre's 2024/2025 season beginning this fall!

This year, we are thrilled to honor and recognize Barbara Manners and Raffaele Gallo with ACT of CT's Visionary Award. Barbara has been actively involved in the arts community since the late '80s, playing a significant role in shaping Ridgefield's cultural landscape. In addition to her contributions to the arts, Barbara has been a member of the Ridgefield Board of Selectpersons since 1997. Raffaele is the owner of several restaurants in NYC, Boston, and Ridgefield (including Gallo Ristorante and The Lantern). His generosity and support for the many local non profit organizations is extraordinary and he is a true champion for the town of Ridgefield.

Gala guests will enjoy a fun-filled cocktail reception with culinary delights provided by local restaurants, a fabulous silent & live auction, and an incredible live show featuring performances from past (and upcoming!!) ACT of CT productions, followed by the BIG reveal: the announcement of next season's line-up of shows! You never know what Broadway stars may grace ACT's stage! Gala guests will also be given the first opportunity to purchase season subscriptions for the 2024/2025 productions - ensuring access to the best seats in the house!

Sponsorships range from $15,000 to $1,500.

Tickets are $300 per person - TICKETS GO ON SALE APRIL 1, 2024
