Being an Artistic Director is rewarding when an actor thanks you for finding what they call a fantastic script.

"The Past, a Present Yet to Come is a story about the courage it takes to believe that people can change, even when all evidence suggests otherwise. That idea is carried by excellent performances across the board, with a cast that invests fully."

Quick. Tonight, before the rain returns, come see The Past, a Present Yet to Come at 7:30. Plenty of free parking around the back, near the entrance to the theater. As the critics say, "You may believe you’ve seen every iteration possible of ‘A Christmas Carol,’ but you’ve never seen it like this."

Today, the Red Hat Ladies came to The Past, a Present Yet to Come. (Running through December 21.)

The last time the Red Hat Ladies came to see a BAT show, we were blown away. Literally. (It was a once-in-200-year event.)

Today, it was just Holiday laughs.

He will be missed.
Another Giant gone. Stoppard was an utterly unique talent and voice. What a loss to the theatre. Rest in peace 🙏🏻

Tech week is crazy. Long hours, making sure all is done before opening. Then the rush of opening night. When it is over, and the audience, cast, and crew are gone. A peace settles over the house. It is a joy.

Tomorrow at 7:30, we do it all again. (On November 29 only, all tickets are $13.)

This is it! Opening of the NW premiere of The Past, a Present Yet to Come.

Plenty of free parking in the back of the building, where the theater entrance is!
