By living in a community with a vibrant culture, we are able to be the kind of place that lifts up those around us. Having a strong, vibrant arts community makes Boise a better place for everyone to live, work and give.
The Pettitt Group real estate team supports art in all forms. We believe that art creates community, which is why each month we choose a local non-profit organization to support.
We are excited to announce our support for the Boise Contemporary Theater (BCT) in February 2018. We will give $100 per transaction to BCT this month, or a minimum of $1,000 (whichever is greater).
Want to write? Act? Play? Then this is the place for you.
Welcome to BCT Theater Lab! BCT Theater Lab believes you’ve got a story worth telling, and they’d like to help you tell it. Each Fall and Spring, 12-18-year-old creators from our community join a small crew of like-minded young artists at BCT to team up and create a brand-new play the world has never seen before. These 10-week Theater Lab intensives are designed to take young artists deep into the art and craft of storytelling. Small teams conceive, write and create a brand-new work of art, working side-by-side with professional actors, writers and designers, and present their new works for the public on the BCT Mainstage.
Boise Contemporary Theater offers the only training program for local youth in the Treasure Valley that teaches the skills and techniques of modern playmaking from concept to performance. The BCT Theater Lab programs foster focus, creativity, collaboration, discipline, empowerment and excellence in our area youth. In addition to their 10-week after-school programs, they offer a Spring Break Theater Camp for 6-12 year olds, and a one-week Summer Radio Theater Lab. BCT Theater Lab also extends its outreach with in-school programs at local schools throughout the Treasure Valley and in Stanley. Contact BCT Education Director Dwayne Blackaller at db@bctheater.org or call (208) 331-9224 x202 to see if he can bring Theater Lab into your school.
