Dylan Hughes' (Actor) charm allows him to say and do things he shouldn't be able to get away with. His good looks have helped him to achieve regular work as a voice actor. He has worked in the treasure valley as an actor, and stand up comedian for the last twelve years. His talents have taken him all the way to performing at the Kennedy Center in Washington DC.

He was just seen in Around the World in 80 Days and was co-writer of the creative interpretation of Lewis Carrol's The Jabberwocky. Noah thanks all of his incredibly supportive friends and family, and is very excited to perform for you all yet again.

Other recent credits include: Scenes in a Hotel Room for Modern Art and 8 for the Power of One at Boise State University. Kelly is a singer, songwriter, writer, poet, and pug mommy. She would like to thank her parents for always laughing at her jokes.

Veronica Von Tobel (Actor) is so excited to be returning for another B.C.T Children's Reading. You may have seen her in last season's readings of One Snowy Night, Storm in the Barn, and The Jabberwocky. Veronica has also done many Idaho Shakespeare Festival educational tours.
