Who Can Join & Benefits

Anyone can join AITA/IATA.

There are 3 simple ways to do this:

• If your organisation represents amateur theatre on a national basis in your country, you can apply for National Centre status
• If there is already an organisation representing amateur theatre on a national basis in your country, then you can access AITA/IATA and our services through them
• If you want to create a direct link with AITA/IATA, then you can join us through becoming an AITA/IATA Associate

AITA/IATA is your gateway to a wider and more rewarding international theatre experience.

What can AITA/IATA do for you?

If you want to make friends with like-minded people working in the theatre, mainly on a non-professional basis, and take the opportunity to transport your theatre beyond your own national borders, then AITA/IATA exists for you.
