Support the Belleville Theatre Guild
Belleville Theatre Guild’s 69th Season
Welcome to our 2020-2021 Season!
A season that we expect to be somewhat ... unusual.
Present circumstances require us to forego our normal creative avenue: the performance of live theatre in front of live audiences. Our regular season of theatrical productions cannot be offered at this time; nor do we know when this will change.
So what is the Guild to do?
The Guild itself is alive and well, as are the members. And the local community from which we draw our creative talent is still there.
It is the Guild's plan for this very special season that we will continue carry on our mission, as stated in our constituion, to promote "participation, interest in, and enjoyment of, quality live theatre by providing leadership, instruction, education and entertainment in all of the theatre arts" and to "provide exciting creative opportunities for local actors, playwrights, technicians and theatre lovers."
We just need to do things a bit differently.
And this will primarily take advantage of the readily available communications technology.
As an alternative to live performances in front of live audiences, follow the Guild as we look to offer the following activities on-line over the next year:
- workshops and seminars on matters theatrical,
- play readings or more fully realized productions on Youtube
- an ongoing one-act play festival featuring original plays from local playwrights,
We thank you for your patience as we work our way through this new approach to our programming.
Remember: Think global; Act Local
