All Aboard the BBT Express Gala

Celebrate Backstage Theatre’s 52nd Anniversary in style, 
Summit County’s very first non-profit! 

BBT is 52 years strong, and continues to enrich, educate, and entertain residents and visitors of all ages through high quality professional, youth, and community productions and classes for meaningful learning through the arts. 

It takes $50,000 - $100,000 to produce a single show in BBT’s six show season. Your presence supports our continued need to serve the community through your generous donations and sponsorships. Our shows explore community needs that support positive mental health, opportunities for local adults and youth, and world class professionally produced programs.

This festive event will feature a ‘26-‘27 season reveal announcement, specialty drinks paired with delectable bites from Bird and Cow, live show performances, live and silent auctions, raffles, and much more! 

Early bird pricing: $150/Individual, $250/Couple
