As you may have heard there was a fire at BAT. Right now the cause is believed to have been arson. That is not as important as the fact that no one was hurt.
BAT is halfway through its run of “Coney Island Christmas.” BAT is looking for an interim space and hopes to complete the run of this show, even if BAT must miss this Friday. More on that as BAT locates a space and determines what it will take to move-in and tech the show.
BAT has been overwhelmed with good wishes and offers to help, from patrons and the greater theater community. How wonderful that is cannot be put into words. BAT-fans are unbelievable. In this dark time BAT-fans are a bright ray of hope.
The cast, crew and tech people involved with “Coney Island Christmas” could not be better. They have offered to help in every possible way. It brings tears to our eyes. Their outpouring of love for each other and for BAT is overwhelming.
So what can you do to help BAT? Right now your tax deductible donation, if that is possible, would make a big difference. A wonderful donor stepped up at the beginning of “Coney Island Christmas” and agreed to match the first $2,500 donated to BAT during the show. BAT has never needed your help and that match more than it does now. You can donate online HERE, or mail a check to BAT, P.O. Box 48121, Burien, WA 98148.
As soon as BAT finds an interim space we will post the schedule for the rest of “Coney Island Christmas.” Of course, if any dates are missed there will be refunds.
