2025 African American Heritage Production

The first All School Student-Led Production of the New Year will honor the African American Heritage and be celebrated in the Montgomery Arts Theatre from February 26-28, 2025. This year's show is called Re-Tales! The second half of the show will feature sounds of the spirit from the BTW Gospel Choir and will conclude with an original instrumental work.   Show Synopsis: Re-Tales is about a woman who enters a Re-Tale store in search of love and happiness and travels through a catalogue of tales (traditional nursery rhymes) retold to fit the mold of the buyer.
