About us
Founded with the belief that the performing arts should be accessible, empowering, and deeply personal, BBATA has become a home for adults and scholars who want to learn, create, and express themselves.
From drama and musical theatre to dance and vocal training, our academy offers a supportive environment where beginners and experienced performers alike can refine their craft. Over the years, we’ve built a reputation for nurturing confidence, technique, and artistry. Our teachers bring professional industry experience and a passion for guiding students as they discover their voices and step into their potential. At BBATA, every class is more than a lesson — it’s a journey of creativity, discipline, and self-expression.

Whether you’re a beginner or an experienced performer, our classes help you build confidence, develop technique and grow your creative expression at a comfortable pace.
