All Hands on Deck, it’s show time!
It is theater time, and this is an all-hands-on-deck event. Help is needed as follows:
Friday April 5- All flats are being moved from the workspace to the theater. The call is for 9:00 AM in the space.
Saturday, April 6 – Folks are needed at the workspace to help load costumes, tools, props etc. Meanwhile at the theater a truck load of set pieces will be arriving from Copake Falls and will need to be unloaded and set up.
Sunday, April 7- All hands are needed in the theater to help finish setting up the set, unpacking from the day before, etc.
Monday April 8 to Friday April 12, – All hands can be used to finish the set work, which is extensive.
And do not forget that April 28th, there will be a strike of the set followed by a scrumptious dinner at casa Millitello.
Overall, it is too much happiness. Please email Sandy Dickinson at sandybean615@gmail.com to find out how you can be involved.

Repertoire
Planning Ahead: Season 2025-2026
It's time to solicit ideas for the 25-26 season! AND this year, we're providing more opportunity to hear from everyone.
We're creating a suggestion "box" at the rehearsal space for physical suggestions using a form we're creating. You should see it by the end of the month, along with a Google Form we'll be sharing via email blast and FB. Stay tuned!
We hope to compile suggestions to fuel discussion online and at the space, with another Town Hall in the weeks before the June Meeting.
We want to hear your voice and your choice more than ever. If you have any questions, don't hesitate to email repertoire@bht.org
