🌈 Toledo pride showcases 🌈

Students, it’s your time to shine! We’ll be performing at Toledo Pride, August 16th, 2025.

BEVC will be performing at Toledo Pride in Downtown Toledo. We are looking for acts that celebrate love, joy, authenticity, or other Pride-related topics. Consider acts exploring friendship, self love, community, family, etc. This will be a family-friendly event. This is a great opportunity to polish and revisit an act you have already created or develop something new. 

This showcase is open to Teens and Adults with existing Open Gym privileges.  

You may submit a solo, duo, or group choreography act (Please note with group acts only one aerial apparatus can be rigged at a time.) 

Selected acts will be required to signup for one of two feedback sessions with us to get help on developing their act.
