Members will also have the chance to take part in workshops and a master class intended to deepen their performance skills and knowledge about other matters related to putting on a show.

In addition, the Festival serves as BACA's major fundraising event.

Activities of the group include increasing performance opportunities for cabaret entertainers through BACA events and venue development, publicizing the work of local cabaret songwriters, raising public attention about cabaret's presence in Boston and New England, presenting workshops and master classes, providing information about member shows and recordings and advocating for cabaret in arts-related forums.
