What's New at BSPAC

May 14, 2025
Something special happened at the Borrego Springs Performing Arts Center this season—and you could hear the difference. Thanks to the success of Turn UP the Sound , a two-night fundraiser co-hosted with the Borrego Springs Film Institute (BSFI), BSPAC has officially installed a state-of-the-art sound system that will transform every concert, live performance, and film screening for years to come. A major highlight of the event was the return of acclaimed filmmaker Pat Battistini , who presented a slate of his award-winning short films, including Ms. Rossi, Ms. Rossi Takes the Cake, and Mrs. Rossi Meets the Mob. Audiences were treated to behind-the-scenes stories, laughter, and insight during Battistini’s Q&A sessions. His presence brought excitement and a personal connection that truly energized the crowd and reminded us why great storytelling—and sound—matter. What Was Installed This wasn’t just a speaker upgrade. The new system includes: 2 main speakers for full-stage sound 2 subwoofers to bring depth and clarity to music and effects 2 delay speakers to ensure consistent sound throughout the theater 4 front-fill speakers to reach the first few rows with precision 4 under-booth delay speakers to complete the immersive experience All-new amplifiers and audio processing hardware A custom-built amp rack and full system tuning to dial in the perfect acoustics Whether you’re attending a musical performance, a community theater production, or a film festival screening, you’ll now enjoy a clear, rich audio experience in every seat. Why It Matters For a small community like Borrego Springs, BSPAC serves as more than just a stage—it’s where we gather, celebrate, and connect. With this audio upgrade, the center ensures that everyone, including guests using hearing assistance devices , can enjoy performances at the highest quality. It’s a major step forward in making performing arts accessible and unforgettable in the desert.
