The Beaver Dam Area Community Theatre (BDACT) announces the recipients of this year’s Jerome H. Kamps Memorial Scholarships, awarded to two graduating seniors: Ella Gochenaur and Nash Gartzke.

Thanks to our generous hosts, artists, volunteers, sponsors, and attendees, BDACT’s inaugural Garden & Arts Walk was a tremendous success! The event supported BDACT’s mission of bringing quality live theatre and community arts programming to Beaver Dam.

The Beaver Dam Area Community Theatre Wall of Honor, in the lobby of the BDACT Fine Arts Center, celebrates individuals with significant contributions to the development and growth of the organization. Areas of contribution include leadership, committees, performing, crews, production staff, directing and teaching.

Take the Director’s Chair! Do you have a show you’ve been dreaming of bringing to the BDACT stage? This is your last chance to pitch your project for the 2027 season!

As we lean into celebrating our country’s 250th birthday, it seems fitting to reflect on the history and evolution of both American theatre and the theatrical journey of the Beaver Dam Area Community Theatre (BDACT).

The Beaver Dam Area Community Theatre is accepting applications for the Jerome H. Kamps Memorial Award. The $500 award, which was established by the Kamps family in 2016, will be granted to a 2025 high school graduate who has been actively engaged in BDACT and other theater activities and is pursuing a post-high school education.
