Tickets are selling quickly for this weekend's final three performances of Hansel & Gretel!
Here's what our audience members (and reviewers) are saying;
"Bravo! BPA, Bravo! Go see Hansel & Gretel
I had the opportunity to take my toddlers to Hansel & Gretel last night, and cannot say enough good about it."

"Can we go to the opera again?" island 3 year old

"BPA really has outdone itself with this production. It is hilarious, delightful, charming, endearing, and just plain entertaining. The cast, the production crew, the entire operation is fabulously talented. Everyone should see it. BRAVO!!!!"

"Hansel and Gretel was great fun tonight and beautiful voices! Marie stole the show as the witch! Amazing local talent!"

"What distinguishes BPA's mounting is its consistency, in all departments. The singing is excellent and often spectacular; the dancing (thanks to a partnership with Bainbridge Dance Center) breathtaking; the clowning supreme; the instrumental soundtrack immaculate; and the environment realized by BPA's tech crew headed up by Mark Sell perfection."

What are people saying about My Fair Lady? Here's just a sample from emails Ovation! has received over the past few days:

"I went yesterday with a friend and enjoyed it SOOO much that I have already got six of us with tickets for next Sunday!"

"Good luck with the final three shows this weekend! We went opening night and again this past Saturday - full house, and another fantastic performance!"

"I am SO impressed with My Fair Lady! That opening moment, with a stage FULL of frozen characters, is incredibly powerful. Dan is wonderful as is his leading lady (as she always is, but this time even more so), and the choreography is wonderful. I think it is Ovation's best show yet, and we're coming back for a second helping."

"This will be the 2nd Sunday I will be in attendance. It's one of the most spectacular musicals I've ever been to and this time I am bringing my daughter -in-law for a Xmas present."
