Welcome to BATS Next Gen!
Formed in 2002, BATS Next Gen’s ethos is to provide affordable musical theatre experience for young people in and around the Basingstoke area aged between 7 and 18.
Self-funded and run as a not-for-profit musical society by volunteers, we pass on our experience and love of theatre through rehearsals and performances, usually culminating in one show a year at The Haymarket, Basingstoke.
We are very proud to announce that we have been awarded a NODA (National Operatic and Dramatic Arts) Accolade of Musical Excellence for our two-week Summer School production of We Will Rock You. We also have been nominated for SE Region Best Compiliation Show 2022 for “20 – Celebrating 20 years of BATS Next Gen”. The winner will be announced at the NODA SE Day of Celebration on June 11th 2023 in Guildford.
WANT TO PERFORM? AGED 7 – 17?
