SPOTLIGHT

MEET GUILD BOARD MEMBERS MARCH BAREMORE AND HEATHER SMALLWOOD.

March Baremore and Heather Smallwood are co-chairs of the Guild’s Feed the Kids. Feed the Kids is the Guild's hallmark program to support all Theatre Students participating in Theatre Conservatory productions.

The Guild provides dinner for Conservatory students and faculty during tech rehearsals and performances.

Reach out to March and Heather if you are interested in helping with Feed the Kids. feedthekids@btwtheatreguild.com

March Baremore

March's son Jude is a Junior. March works as an underpinning and fit specialist for Simone Perele. She gets to train sales associates and do special events around the country. March loves to bake and it is her dream to one day open a bakery.
The very first time March volunteered at Booker T was with Heather Smallwood. As a freshman parent, March was welcomed by Heather. March and Heather have been FTK partners ever since. March believes Feed The Kids is a great way to see the shows coming together.

Heather Smallwood

Heather's daughter Jaelyn is a theater senior. Heather is a real estate agent and a published children’s book author. The 3rd book in her “The Power to Be Me” series is currently in the works. When Heather is not helping clients buy/sell homes or writing, she enjoys cooking, traveling, and spending quality time with family and friends. This is Heather’s fourth year to volunteer for Feed the Kids and she is very pleased to share the responsibility with March. Feed the Kids has been a wonderful way to meet and get to know the incredibly talented students and dedicated staff at BTW.

NEED JUNIOR STUDENT & PARENT VOLUNTEERS

Showcase Filming

The Theatre Conservatory is in need of Junior Parent and Junior Student volunteers Oct.1-3 to assist with Senior audition filming.

In preparing for Senior Showcase, students will help with filming and parents will monitor hallways, greet students, and generally supervise outside the filming area. Teachers will be on-site to provide additional instruction and supervision as needed. There will be a light breakfast available for morning slots and snacks/water for the afternoon.

All junior students will be participating in Senior Showcase next year....this is a great opportunity to get a behind-the-scenes look at what is involved.
