JACKSON, MISSOURI, JULY 30, 2025 ―Behind the Scenes received a donation from AC Power Distribution (ACPD), a brand of ACT Entertainment, during this year’s CineGear Expo in Los Angeles. The check was presented by ACPD Vice President James Davey to Behind the Scenes Board Member Paul Royalty representing a portion of the proceeds from sales of ACPD’s LunchBoxPD data and power distribution system. This donation was made possible through ACT Entertainment’s participation in the BTS Pledge of Support Program.

It’s a product specifically designed to make life on stage just that much easier — something that rings true with the Behind the Scenes organization and the important work they do for stagehands and technicians. We’re honored to contribute to such a worthy program.”

Behind the Scenes Board Member Paul Royalty, who accepted the donation on behalf of BTS, shared, “We’re incredibly grateful for this generous contribution. ACT’s continued support through product-based giving is helping us reach more professionals in need through our Basic Needs and Counseling Grants and the BTS Mental Health Initiative.”
