Oskaloosa Community Theatre (OCT) is a 501(c)3 Nonprofit Organization that provides amateur theater to the residents of Oskaloosa and surrounding areas. Our organization began more than 30 years ago operating solely with donations from the community. We give everyone an equal opportunity to participate in the thrill and learning experience of being a part of a theatrical production.
A community theater incurs many expenses which can include everything from royalties for plays to toilet paper for the bathroom. We depend on donations from generous people like yourself in order to keep going.
