| KCACTF Region III KCACTF, Region III, Newsletter #1 (the first in a series of newsletters to help keep you informed) From Sandi and Tom NEW PRODUCTION REGISTRATION SITE Online registration shifts from the Kennedy Center website to kcactf.org. Look for the menu at the left hand side of the page for “Register Your Production” and to access other information concerning KCACTF. When you enter electronically to register your production, the on-line form will automatically generate email messages to your accounts payable person, to the regional co-chairs, and a return email to the person entering the production to confirm registration. This should help us to arrange potential respondents more quickly. It will also give us the ability to enter and sort Irene Ryan Acting candidates, Design Candidates, Playwrights, etc. For regional information, please click on “Contact a Region” or on the regional map where Region III is in red. KENNEDY CENTER FEES INCREASE The fees for associate and participating entries will increase this year, for the first time in 13 years. Fee increases reflect additional administrative costs, which have been borne by the Kennedy Center. Beginning October 1st, the registration fee for Associate Entries will be $225, and for Participating Entries, $300. We believe that participation in KCACTF is still a wise investment. Besides gaining access to the regional and national festival awards and events, registration sets up the conversation between a respondent and your local production. Region III is determined to continue to improve the quality of responses to both Associate and Participating entries. Watch for new opportunities for respondent training, for recognizing excellent respondents, and for making the response process easier. **SAVINGS** To avoid the latest fee increases, enter all of your 2006-2007 season productions before September 25th.
