New AWRC Theatre Fund

Please help us move to our new theatre at 1000 N. Dixie Highway in downtown West Palm Beach.

We have currently raised $175,000 and we need an additional $105,000.

The Actor’s Workshop & Repertory Company (Actor’s Rep) was launched in May, 1980 by Bob Carter and a company of actors.  The Rep delighted, shocked, amused and educated thousands of audience members who flocked to its 99-seat theatre-in-the-round on Dixie Highway in downtown West Palm Beach.

Actor’s Rep’s productions included avant-garde plays as well as seldom performed classics.  Many shows contained true-to-life subject matters too risky for other theaters. By the end of the 1981 (the first season) Actors’ Rep had the reputation of excellence and had subscribers from Fort Pierce to Key West.  Carolyn Jack of the Palm Beach Post and Cathy Williams of the Palm Beach Times, as well as other theatre critics, called attention to the importance and strength of the company and the quality of the acting and works performed.

In the summer of 1982, Actor’s Rep held the very first children’s and teen acting day camps ever in Palm Beach or Broward counties.  Today there are 6 classes and 58 students.  The Rep also participates in Sun Fest every year to raise funds for the theatre.

This new building would provide more rehearsal, teaching and performance space.  It also boasts of a locked parking lot.

Bob Carter’s Actor’s Workshop & Repertory Company, Inc. is incorporated in the state of Florida to provide education and training in the theatre arts and to develop professional theatrical productions using primarily local talent. The corporation is a not-for-profit 501(c)(3) organization and all contributions are tax deductible. We thank you for your generous support!
