While AmericanTheater Web maintains one of the most comprehensive and up-to-date databases of theaters and productions in the United States, the site is also a burgeoning theatrical community on the Internet. Our community consists of theater professionals and theater-goers alile.

Community implies a dialogue and AmericanTheater Web continues to work toward using the on-line medium to facilitate interaction between its diverse communities.

You can interact with other users and visitors to ATW by using:

• Our message boards - join in a conversation about on-line marketing, fundraising, playwriting, and acting. We're currently looking for moderators for these boards. Please contact ATW by email if you would like to moderate one of these groups. To start off, there are only four forums listed - if you think something is missing or one category is too broad, email ATW.
• Announcements - post an announcement about playwriting contests, publicize fundraising events, list upcoming auditions, volunteer oprotunities, and internships, and let people know about show extensions.
• Chat - new expanded Chat rooms covering all aspects of the theater. Want to start your own chat or have ideas for Chat Rooms? Email us and let us know!
