About Us

Formed in response to dialogues with local professional actors who wanted a permanent home for theatre artists from the Tucson community, BATC’s mission is to create captivating experiences for its patrons, students, and the Tucson community through the highest artistic and technical quality productions and education programs. And true to its roots, BATC also strives to provide a theatre where performing artists, educators, and technicians can develop and present their skills.

Beowulf Alley's unique name was formed by combining two words that reflect opposite ideas. Beowulf (recognized as the oldest known Anglo-Saxon literary work possibly transcribed from oral performance) stands for the strong traditional and classical theatrical form, whereas Alley is evocative of a contemporary, urban, edgy approach to theatre. The merged name of Beowulf Alley therefore boldly reflects the company’s goal to present a broad range of works with the greatest excellence, integrity and innovation.

crack1BATC rents its venue to acting and dance companies, musical groups, businesses, government agencies, organizations and individuals for performances, meetings and rehearsals and special events.
