We have made more changes to the MACT website (again!). We changed the plugin we were using for the events listings and calendar. (For those who care, we switched from The Events Calendar to EventPrime.) We think the new plugin is easier to work with, has more features built in and looks better. Take a look at the new website and let the webmaster know what you think.
The busy summer season will be winding down soon. There’s still a lot of plays for you to choose from. You’re sure to find something (or maybe even many somethings) you like in the list below. Check out the shows and let the theatres know you saw it in MACT’s newsletter.
Fringe Fest is coming up soon. I know there are some MACT member theatres that will be having shows in the Fringe. Fringe is a great time to see lots of “interesting” shows in a short period of time. Kind of like MACT*Fest but even larger and more spread out (both time wise and physically).
I have been so busy working on the new MACT website, that I didn’t have time to find much to write about. So I guess we’ll just wait for next week.
We would like to feature stories about MACT member theaters in this newsletter. If you have a story about your theatre – it’s history, a special project or milestone, anything of general interest – please send it to NewsletterMACT@gmail.com.
Please pass this newsletter along to anyone that you think might be interested. If you did not receive this newsletter directly, you can subscribe to this free weekly newsletter on the newsletters page of our website.
Please keep Tickets to the City in mind when you are looking for an on-line tcketing service. They have been MACT’s on-line ticketing service for many years. The system works great and is easy to use. Support is superior! And every ticket you sell through them helps support MACT.
