The Alaska Fine Arts Community Theater was just an idea in January of 2006 when Linda Coy and Laura Albright put out a call for Eagle River residents interested in organizing a local theater group. Since then, we have built a theater and produced several successful shows! We provide opportunities for everyone, children through adults, to participate in theatrical activities from performing to being part of the audience! We produce 3 shows during the year plus a melodrama in the summer and are always in need of interested volunteers – no experience necessary, just a willingness to pitch in where needed!
