A.C.T. gives us a chance of girls and music
The Bay Area’s weekly roundup of arts, culture, and community | March 13 to 19, 2026
In conjunction with the world premiere of ||: Girls :||: Chance :||: Music :|| at American Conservatory Music, the theatre is launching a program for real young artists like the fictional ones you will see on stage. Before each performance of Eisa Davis’s personally inspired musical, female-identified student musicians from Young Musicians Choral Orchestra (YMCO) will appear in public concerts on Market Street.
This program, girls play music, is a chance for young emerging artists to perform for audiences of the theatre and the public, giving us an example of the power of arts education that is presented on stage. – Ciara
