IMPROVING BOTTOM LINE

Most theaters across the country lose money — the only question is how much. This is the struggle each city and non-profit organization faces every year at budget time. We feel your pain. Successfully managing a theater or performing arts organization is tricky business. It’s not an exact science, but the costs of operating venues continues to soar each and every year. Put the wrong person in the CEO chair, and financial catastrophe is right around the corner. That’s why we started ACM — to be there for clients when things go wrong and help them turn around the operation and dramatically improve their theaters. We have nearly 30 years of experience successfully managing theaters up and down the East Coast. We’ve improved the bottom line in every theater we have ever gone in to, and we can do the same for you. With big money at stake, the taxpayers, board of directors, politicians and your customers expect successful outcomes. We can help you achieve all of this and more, all without breaking the bank.

HAPPY CLIENTS

-Erdal Donmez, former City Manager, City of Coral Springs, FL

“Kevin was the General Manager at the Coral Springs Center for the Arts from 1999-2016. During this time, I had the pleasure of working with Kevin, and experiencing first-hand his skills in managing all aspects of our 1,500 seat theater. During his tenure, Kevin developed positive working relationships with City officials, City staff and the entire community at large. His work with non-profit arts organizations, charities and local businesses have contributed directly to the success of the theater and to the City of Coral Springs. Kevin ran a turn-key operation for us and it was invaluable to have the Coral Springs Center for the Arts in Kevin’s very capable hands. I would highly recommend him to any municipality or organization that is seeking to improve its theater operation.”

– Michael Evans, President-Arenas, Live Nation

“I have worked with many GMs during my long career and Kevin is one of the best in the business. We worked side-by-side for many years, and I saw first-hand how Kevin’s leadership skills, programming and marketing vision helped our company achieve great financial success. Kevin is one of the brightest stars in the arts and entertainment industry today.”

– Desorae Giles-Smith,  City Manager, City of Lauderhill

“Kevin has been working with the City of Lauderhill for years on its new 1,200 seat Performing Arts Center located in central Broward County. He has been the main point person on the management team. It is quite obvious that Kevin is a highly skilled arts administration executive and knows the theater management business inside and out. He has demonstrated excellence in customer service, budgeting and financial management and helped the theater navigate these early days with great professionalism. He is a big asset for the City of Lauderhill as we ramp up operations at our arts center in the next year, and we are fortunate to have him ‘on the team.’ Kevin has developed positive working relationships with the City Commission, City Staff and the entire community at large. To me, it is imperative to have the Lauderhill Performing Arts Center in Kevin’s very capable hands. I would highly recommend him to any municipality or organization that is seeking to improve its theater operation.”
