About Us

Stacey McKnight was 12 when she first performed on the amateur stage. This sparked a love for theatre that continues today.
Over the years, she has been in all aspects of the theatre, including in writing, directing, choreographing, set design and construction, and acting.
She and her husband have been residents of Butts County since 2007. Frustrated with traveling up to 60 miles to see quality live performances, Stacey saw an opportunity when a new Performing Arts Center opened in Jackson. She took this as her cue to start a local community theatre which would cultivate local talent and bring professional-quality productions closer to home.

A lifelong lover of the arts, Tina has been involved in theater, chorus, and visual arts since elementary school. The arts, in all forms, have been a passion that shaped her life.
Along with her husband, Tina moved to Butts County in 2022, bringing her years of experience in the arts to the local community.
As a co-founder of Butts Acting Guild, she is thrilled to help cultivate a space where creativity and connection can thrive. While she loves the energy of live performances, she’s happy to leave Atlanta traffic behind for the welcoming atmosphere of Butts County. When she's not backstage or in the spotlight, you can find her enjoying time with her family and supporting the local arts scene.
