BAC LITTLE STAR: 20-21 Productions: 101 Dalmatians KIDS, August 2021. Students ages 4-7 rehearse a 30-minute performance.
This opportunity introduces our youngest performers to being on-stage, playing a character, memorizing simple song lyrics and telling
familiar stories. These productions culminate with a simple performance on the Baffes Theatre stage with minimal set, props, and
costumes.
BAC JUNIOR STAR: Students ages 8-12 rehearse an up to 90-minute show, experiencing the art of theatre on a deeper level. More
advanced theatre techniques are learned while cultivating character-development, performance technique, and vocal work. These
productions culminate in a fully-realized production over multiple dates on the Baffes Theatre stage.
BAC TEEN STUDIO: Students ages 13-22 rehearse a show with themes appropriate for older performers. These include both straight
plays and musicals and incorporate the BAC TECHIES class to help get the production up and running. Students learn audition tech-
niques, more advanced theatre theories, acting exercises, warm-up techniques, and push their art to the limit. These productions
culminate in a production over multiple dates in the Baffes Theatre or Studio Theatre.
BAC STAR+: 20-21 Production: Disney’s Beauty and the Beast, August 2021. These productions are audition only. Students and
community members will get the opportunity to work with a professional director, choreographer, musical director, and theatre design-

Disney’s Beauty and the Beast
The classic story of Belle, a young woman in a provincial town, and the Beast, who is really a young prince trapped under
the spell of an enchantress. If the Beast can learn to love and be loved, the curse will end and he will be transformed into
his former self. But time is running out. If the Beast does not learn his lesson soon, he and his household will be doomed
for all eternity.

COMEDY OF ERRORS
Written by William Shakespeare
Directed by Carly Bishop
One of Shakespeare’s hysterical comedies! Egeon
travels to Ephesus with his son Antipholus and ser-
vant, Dromio. Antipholus learns that he has a twin
brother, separated from him at birth and assumed lost
at sea during a shipwreck in his infanthood. The other
set of twins, also named Antipholus and Dromio, live
in Ephesus, and the new arrivals cause a series of
hilarious incidents of mistaken identity.
