And a special thank you to our cast, crew and their parents. Your enthusiasm and support make all of this magic possible!
To our producer, Eve Zibel, the time and dedication you poured into the production the last two years is invaluable. Thank you for being a fearless leader and bringing life back to the stage at BMES.
Did you enjoy this production and want to get involved next year?
We'd love your help! Most of our parent volunteers have no experience in musicals. We have many roles to fill such as costumes, makeup, set design, crew coordinators, concessions, rehearsal volunteers, and more.

Thank you and we hope you enjoy the show!
