Verona Area Community Theatre

Verona Area Community Theater (VACT) was founded in 1992 by Dee Baldock with the goal of providing affordable opportunities for children and adults to engage in and enhance their passions for all facets of theater. Since that time the organization has grown exponentially, but continues to provide a strong sense of community and many memorable experiences for participants and audiences alike.

People of all abilities and skill levels, ranging in age from 5 to 75 years-old, have found a home at VACT and everyone is welcome to participate. The cost to participate in a VACT production is never more than $20 per person, including costumes, and fees are waived for anyone experiencing financial challenges.

VACT now offers 10-11 full length productions a season. At least six of the productions feature children, and in 2020 VACT began a senior theater program, completely cast with actors age 55 and over. All VACT productions are complete with professional quality sets, costumes, sound and lighting. Paid annual attendance at VACT shows has grown from a total of 290 patrons in 1992 to over 9,000.
