All-of-us Express Children's Theatre occasionally puts on special events. These may be celebrations, fundraisers, or just an extra opportunity to introduce community members to the program.
Upcoming special events
Save the date to join us for the annual meeting of the AECT board of trustees, which will take place at 8:00pm on Tuesday, September 12 in room 235 of the Hannah Center. Come for a short (like less than 30 minutes) and sweet (ice cream social after) meeting to cover a few bylaws updates, vote on new board and executive committee members, and distribute the annual report. All AECT members have voting privileges. If you are interested in serving on the board or joining a subcommittee (no board membership required), please contact us prior to the annual meeting.
Board members will be available to answer any questions about AECT and its nonprofit board. Details about the board and its activities can also be found on our Board of Trustees page. Proposed changes to AECT bylaws: the board proposed changes to the bylaws as marked with yellow highlighting on this PDF. These changes will be brought to the membership for a vote at the annual meeting. |
No matter how long your family has been involved with AECT, there’s likely a crew no one has been on or a place in the Hannah Center you haven't seen. Have you heard your kid talking about the “Props Hole” and wondered what it is? Or been curious how actors get from one side of the stage to the other between scenes? Have a guess about the number of sewing machines the Costumes crew has on hand? Wondered where those recurring set pieces, like giant rocks or lamp posts, are stored between shows?
Join us for our Fall Backstage Tours on Monday, October 16 to find out as AECT guides give you a behind-the-scenes look all over the Hannah Center. Groups will leave from the concessions area off the theater lobby at 6:30, 6:45, and 7:00pm. Rehearsal will be going on, and most crews are called that night, so we'll get to see our kids in action. To assist with planning, please sign up for a time slot here and indicate how many people will be in your group. Walk-ins are also welcome, but signing up will help us have the right number of guides (and treats!) on hand. |
RECENT special events
Our Anna and Elsa characters charmed community members at the East Lansing Farmer's Market! The two youth actors handed out flyers for the upcoming show, sang selections from the production, and posed for photos with children.
The mini concert was live on Instagram and Facebook, and the recording can still be found on our Facebook page. |
