BAM Block Party
BAMtheatre – a premier Chicagoland youth theater conservatory – will celebrate the one-year anniversary of its new Performing Arts Facility building with the annual BAM Block Party on Saturday, May 30. Opened in May 2025, the state-of-the-art facility was custom built in an old bank building and includes a 191-seat theater, a professional-grade dance studio, spacious rehearsal rooms, a wing of studios for private instruction, and more. Community members of all ages are invited to tour this exceptional space during the block party and have fun in the parking lot where food trucks, a beer tent, games, and activities will be held. Every hour on the half-hour one of BAM’s nationally recognized conservatory competition teams will entertain guests with an excerpt from their award-winning competition performance. BAM Block Party is Saturday, May 30, from 4:00 PM to 7:00 PM at the BAM Performing Arts Facility, 520 N Cass Ave. in Westmont, IL. Attendance is free and no prior registration is required.
The BAM Block Party marks the end of a remarkable 25th Anniversary Season for the company. The new building allowed BAM to expand offerings, bringing high-level theatrical education to more students than ever before. Additionally, BAM’s grade school, middle school, and high school-aged competitive conservatory ensembles each achieved the highest-level awards available, competing against other ensembles from across the world at the National Performing Arts Festival, Junior Theater Festival West, and Junior Theater Festival Atlanta, respectively, this season.
