Welcoming our newest board members: Part 2
Please join us in welcoming Tanner Yake to the board of directors.
Tanner feels so blessed to be welcomed onto the GACT Board! He has been a part of GACT for as long as he can remember: from coming to see the shows as a kid, to selling water at the door, then tech and stage crew, and finally on stage. Tanner is currently a student at Robert Morris University in Pittsburgh, PA. His GACT debut was as Scarecrow in The Wizard of Oz. This past summer, Tanner was on stage in Blame It On the Movies. He looks forward to continuing his work on the stage and serving on the board with the people who have inspired him so much.
