New Act II Emergency Fund: In the tradition of Avenue Q, money is being raised for a great cause again! The Act II Emergency Fund was the brainchild of Danny Mininni last year, when everyone in town was scrambling to raise money for an emergency. Danny decided to create an official emergency fund so that money is available quickly, when it is needed on an emergency basis. This fund will be managed by local residents, Tom Bernes, Bert Ramirez and Marsha Ward Ross, who thank Act II for always thinking ahead and always being ready to help the community. Act II and Danny Mininni will raise the money, but will not be involved with decisions on how the monies are disbursed.
Act II PV's #1 Entertainment Venue: Act II's fabulous "Spring Season" is going strong, with lots of entertainment options to enjoy! Recently named the "Best Performing Arts Venue in Banderas Bay" for the second year in a row by Vallarta Tribune readers, and the "#1 Entertainment Venue" by TripAdvisor, Act II continues to enthrall audiences with its exciting Spring season of entertainment. Many of these shows sell out, so check the schedule below and get your tickets now so you don't miss them!

Whether a song reminds you of a specific scene in a film, or triggers a certain cinematic memory, the power of the soundtracks is what we want to celebrate! I am excited to be able to share these beautiful choral arrangements with our audience!" The PVGMC will be joined by fabulous guest artists, Joby Hernandez and Hedda Lettuce!
Now in its 7th year, the PVGMC is a bilingual, cross-cultural chorus with members from Mexico, Canada and the United States.
