    BBPP Receives Fall Mini-Grant

    Building Better People Productions is pleased to announce that we are the recipients of a Fall Mini-Grant from The Arts Council of Anne Arundel County ! We will be using this grant to develop a play about kids and emotions that we will tour in-person and virtually to schools, libraries, and other venues during the 2021-22 school year. Funds will go to support the artists making the show, to pay youth health professionals for consulting in the development of the show, and for marketing. We are so grateful to ACAAC for their continued support of Building Better People and our efforts to make the world better for kids of all ages through the arts.

  • Spring Semester Update

    Spring Semester Update

    This Spring semester, Building Better People Productions learned along with our students!

    On Fridays, our Theater Adventures class for 4-7-year-olds continued with more games, more laughs, more imagination, and more stories written by the kids themselves!

    Teen students in our Tell Your Own Story class devised their own stories that they turned into plays.

    Kids in our Let’s Play class rehearsed and performed the super-fun show, The Bremen Town Rock Musicians, written by Rhonwen McCormack, found on Drama Notebook.com! We recorded our show for parents and friends!

    We had so much fun! Join us for more dramatic fun this summer!
