The current director of the BAI Stage Training Center is Fer Montoya, actor and theater educator, also a professor at the Dantzerti Higher School of Dramatic Art and Dance.

ACT International Festival

In 2004 BAI created the ACT Festival, the International Festival for Emerging Performing Artists. Its aim is to achieve recognition for the work of drama schools and theater training centers, and to exchange information, methods and experiences with colleagues from other countries.

The ACT International Festival aims to promote international emerging artists who, with their innovative proposals, are defining the scene of the future. For about four days, the festival holds living arts, attending shows, courses, workshops or reflection sessions in Bilbao and Barakaldo.
