Beal Alumni Amanda McConnell helped the BMT class of 2021 create this award winning music video. The finale song “Light” from the musical Next to Normal resonated with our musical theatre class as our studies moved online during the covid pandemic. To us, the song and the video represented hope, moving forward, stepping out of the darkness, taking a breath, and seeing the light of better things to come.
In 2021, with strict covid protocols in place that prohibited public performances and kept our Beal Dancers working in small isolated teams, we reimagined how to reconnect and share our love of dance with the community at large. “Brand New” is a testament to the spirit of our dancers in the face of unprecedented times.
