BAT does it again! Here is our FANTASTICAL 36th Season (2015-16) Laugh ‘til it hurts, cry ‘til you smile, think, dream… …Theater that amazes! Great prices! Free parking! ON THE MAIN-STAGE: THE ADDAMS FAMILY A…
BAT is narrowing the field for its 2015-16 season. It looks to be very exciting and well worth your support, still this time of year brings out fear in those who select the plays to be produced.
You might think by the time BAT is picking its 36th season, there would be a nice easy plug-in formula and off we go. That is not the case.
Lets look at how the sausage is made. This post addresses the concerns of small houses, and may not apply to bigger or well endowed theaters. With a steady income comes the ability to take greater risks, as one bad play or season will not kill the theater.
For BAT, we start with our mission statement:
Burien Actors Theatre is committed to being a leader in entertainment by producing intriguing professional-quality shows with the highest artistic integrity that excites, engages and involves both the local and expanding artistic communities in the Puget Sound Region.
Okay. So what does that mean for play selection? It doesn’t give much clear guidance, but it is a starting place.
BLT (soon to be BAT) is very excited to announce its 2013-14 Season! And what a fantastical season it is!
First the good news! Ticket prices remain the same. That’s right a season ticket or a Fabulous Four Pack remain just $60 general admission and $48 for students/seniors and active military! That price cannot be beat.
Tickets at the door are just $20 general admission and $17 for students/seniors and active military!
