American Conservatory Theater Summary

The following paragraph provided courtesy of wikipedia.

American Conservatory Theater (A.C.T.) is a prestigious theater company in San Francisco, California, that offers both contemporary and classical theater productions and a wide range of classes. ACT’s Young Conservatory is a highly regarded theater training program for youth through the ages of 19. The term Sound Design was introduced to the film world when Francis Ford Coppola directed (and for which his father, Carmine Coppola, arranged the music and Charlie Richmond was the Sound Designer) a production of Private Lives at A.C.T., while the final cut of the film The Godfather was being edited in 1972.
