Penny Posted November 23, 2020 Share Posted November 23, 2020 No disrespect to ACCB which has done wonderful work raising money for local charities . . . . however, I don't think it's right that they are calling the theater in the Tap Out building "the ACCB theater". BCP built that theater. They put thousands and thousands of dollars and uncountable man hours of labor into that theater. I think that contribution should be respected by calling it the BCP theater. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Linda Posted November 25, 2020 Share Posted November 25, 2020 I truly understand Penny's comment and rightly so. Referring to the theater as ACCB Theater was not intended to be permanent nor to offend anyone. BCP originally stood for Boquete Community Playhouse. Just recently BCP has been changed to Boquete Community Pulse. I personally felt a disconnect from the theater. Using the BCP term, to me, no longer suggested the theater. No Tuesday Talks, no Sunday movies, the theater appeared to be neglected. When TapOut owners offered ACCB to manage it, our members discussed it and decided it was too much a part of Boquete to sit idle only to have 3-4 performances a year there. It has become an icon to the Boquete Community and deserves to continue with regular activities. We have talked about referring to the Theater by its full name, Boquete Community Theater, and not BCP. Penny, I'd like to hear your input and or suggestions. We have prepared an intro to our management of the theater which will be submitted today. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Penny Posted November 27, 2020 Share Posted November 27, 2020 Calling the theater Boquete Community Playhouse (or Theater) is the ideal solution. Thanks again for everything you and Joe do for the community. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
