What a testament to have 53 years of wind behind the sails of community theater in our waterfront town. BOTTG produces two plays each year, one in the spring and one in the fall. Now entering its 54th year, the Solano County ARTY-award winning Benicia Old Town Theatre Group is introducing a new director for the spring 2018 season—Bay Area director Angelina LaBarre—who is taking the helm of the romantic comedy Coming Apart, by Fred Carmichael. LaBarre is also a professor of drama at Contra Costa College in San Pablo, Ca. Her recent directing credits with CCC include How We Got On, Exit, Pursued By A Bear, The Laramie Project, and The Complete Works Of William Shakespeare. Her local directing pursuits include the Fetterly Playhouse, Missouri Street Theatre, Darkroom Productions and Harbor Theater. She holds a BA from Sacramento State University and a MFA from Mary Baldwin University in Staunton, Virginia.
