August 2025 -- Congratulations to the 2025 NJACT Nominees!

Hello Friends, Theaters, and Members:

Happy August, everyone!  Hope the summer is going awesome for all of you!  I would like to congratulate all the nominees for the NJACT 2024/25 Award Season.  We should all congratulate every theater, theater board, production staff, performer, crew, pit member, and volunteer for their hard work throughout the year!  I wish I could give everyone a Perry Award for ALL the hard work that is done on and off the stage.  A quick thank you to the Somerset Valley Players for hosting the nominations.  It was much appreciated and a wonderful day!

Now on to the ceremony! Tickets and ads are now on sale.  We have an early bird price; make sure you get that deal before it ends on August 23rd.  Go to NJACT.org for all the information. Also, don’t forget the theme of “Guilded Glamour”.  There are so many options you can wear at the ceremony.  I can’t wait to see all of those takes on Guilded Age costumes!

Lastly, we are now on the 2025/2026 season.  Let’s make this year as great as the previous ones we had.  It is never too early to submit your nominations for stage management.  Do it while it is fresh in your mind! 

I look forward to seeing all the awesome people of NJACT at the ceremony in September at the Strand Theater in Lakewood.  As always, I am proud to be part of NJ Theater.  Being a part of the community always brings a smile to my face.  The memories will always be with me forever.

With much love and appreciation,

PJ Campacci
President, New Jersey Association of Community Theaters
