BAAY Juniors proudly present their first return to live performances in our downtown theatre space (spruced up during pandemic lockdown)!

About: Bellingham Arts Academy for Youth (BAAY) presents Esme’s Adventures in Another World. This original production was written, directed, and choreographed by Lisa Markowitz. It tells the story of a girl named Esme, who keeps all of her thoughts in a duffle bag. Esme travels to another realm where she meets The Ponderer, The Star-Gazer, The Tiny Toad of Dismay, and other wonderful characters. Through their adventures, Esme learns the secrets of happiness, dreams, and, most importantly, spaghetti. Esme’s Adventures in Another World features student performers ages 9-12 and runs December 10-12 and 17-19 at the BAAY Theatre.
