Past Performances:
January, 2026
Heroes David Ives' - All in the Timing
Presented by the BART 10th-12th Grade Theatre Ensemble
BART Charter Public School is proud to invite you to an evening of wit, wordplay, and whimsical comedy. This January, our 10th–12th grade theatre ensemble takes the stage at the prestigious Williams College ‘62 Center for Theatre and Dance to present David Ives’ All in the Timing.
About the Show
All in the Timing is a celebrated collection of short comedic plays that find the extraordinary in the ordinary. Our production showcases the incredible range of our upper-school performers as they navigate fast-paced dialogue, physical comedy, and the delightful complexities of the English language.
A Showcase of Talent
To ensure every student in our 29-person ensemble class has the opportunity to shine, this production has been double-cast. This allows our young artists to take on significant roles and brings a unique energy to each performance.
November, 2025
Heroes vs. Villains Cabaret
Our fall cabaret was an evening of songs inspired by our ensemble-selected theme: Heroes vs. Villains. Our 10th-12th grade theatre ensemble class transformed the BART stage with some of your favorite heroes and villains.
May 2025
Chicago: Teen Edition
We stepped into the roaring 1920s with Chicago: Teen Edition, a dazzling, high-energy adaptation of the legendary Broadway musical—tailored for a younger cast, but packing just as much punch!
This bold and stylish production follows the scandalous exploits of Roxie Hart and Velma Kelly as they vie for fame, fortune, and freedom in a city where the truth is as slippery as a jazz tune. With iconic choreography, show-stopping numbers like “All That Jazz” and “Cell Block Tango,” and a cast of rising teen stars, this performance left us tapping our feet and cheering for more.
Dr. Stephon Alexander ~ May 2025
As a part of its Creative Leaders in Residence program, BART was excited to welcome Dr. Stephon Alexander. Dr. Alexander, a professor of physics at Brown University, is a theoretical physicist and jazz musician specializing in cosmology, particle physics, and quantum gravity. During this residency at BART, he explored the interconnections among music, mathematics, and nature with students.
Dr. Alexander delivered a public performance as part of our “BART Presents!” series. His performance was titled, “From Hip Hop to the Cosmos,”.
