Chair
Bart St Clair
In the Spring of 1987, as a sophomore theatre major operating the follow spot from the ballroom = balcony, I watched in thrall as my fellow BSA students performed in Expressions. It was my first Expressions, and I was very proud to play a small part in making it a success. I feel that same thrill of excitement 38 years later serving as Chair for Expressions ‘25. What an opportunity to give back to the school that gave me so much and continues to do so for generations of students.
So here’s to this year’s celebration of the power of ‘transformation’ through education and the arts. It’s clearer than ever for me how the education I received during my BSA years transformed my talents and my self-confidence, prepared me to attend a top university and equipped me to dedicate myself to careers both in the arts and in the corporate world. It helped me be not only a better performer, but a better member of my community. How fantastic that BSA continues to give those gifts to students each and every year. And how lucky we are that we can play a role in continuing to make that happen.
Enjoy Expressions ‘25!
