AAPACT News Alert!!! AAPACT will launch a directory showcasing South Florida actors, directors, writers, set designers and builders, choreographers, costume designers, make-up artists, photographers, producers, educators, etc. who are working in or aspiring to work in theatre and film. "Where are all the black actors in South Florida!" This has been asked of Teddy Harrell, Jr. Founder/Producing Artistic Director of AAPACT often from agents and producing agencies. "AAPACT enjoys inviting aspiring and seasoned actors to audition for our shows, but more importantly AAPACT refers these actors to other work opportunities when ever possible. Although the directory is designed to expose entertainment professionals of color, the directory invites all entertainment professionals for submission. The directory will go out to South Florida theatre and film producers, casting directors, managers, theatre houses, agents, etc. If you are interested in being included in the directory, email AAPACT at: [email protected]. Place in the subject line: "I am interested" and we will respond to you the details to be included in the directory. Much Success all!
