Angelica Torres: A Visionary Director/Producer with 30 Years of Experience

 

Angelica Torres is a highly accomplished Musical Theater and Television/Social Media Director/Producer and Talent Manager with an impressive career spanning over three decades. With a passion for teaching and a deep love for the performing arts, Angelica has made significant contributions to the theater, TV, film, and music video industries.

 

Originally from Mexico, Angelica's journey in the performing arts began with her exceptional talent as a jazz performer, winning multiple national competitions. Her passion for theater and dance led her to New York City, where she studied musical theater dance under the renowned Chet Walker. During this time, she participated in the legendary production "Viva El Paso!" for two years and went on to produce her first musicals, including the adaptation, production, direction, and choreography of Gershwin's "Crazy for You" at the young age of 23.

 

Angelica then moved to Mexico City, where she worked as Assistant Director and Producer for the Mexican production "Como Ama la Otra Mitad," alongside industry veterans Manolo Fabregas and Otto Sirgo. She also served as the choreographer for singer Paulina Rubio, including performances at Madison Square Garden and a national tour. At 26, Angelica relocated to Westchester, NY, where she created a successful musical theater program for the Recreation Department of the Village of Mamaroneck and various schools in the area. Additionally, she produced and directed a TV series for LMCT in Larchmont, NY, earning multiple Best Series Awards.

 

In Miami, FL, Angelica continued to leave her mark on the industry. She brought her Broadway Musical program to the Village of Key Biscayne, running for 18 years and producing over 35 musicals, including regional premieres and Disney's pilots. Her programs were immensely popular, introducing hundreds of children, young adults, and adults to the magic of theater. During this time, she formed the pop group "Give me 5" on YouTube, featuring three of her musical theater students, including her daughter, Giselle. The group achieved success and made it to the finals on the X factor, with their music videos going viral and amassing millions of views.

 

Angelica's talents extended beyond theater, as she ventured into music production, management, music videos, and YouTube content. Her daughter, Giselle Torres, embarked on a successful solo career, accumulating over 1.2 billion views on her YouTube channel, with Angelica leading the production efforts. In 2018, Angelica had the opportunity to pitch a sitcom idea for Comcast TV, which was chosen, leading her to create, develop, direct, produce, and edit two full seasons (26 episodes) of the acclaimed series "Five@305," currently airing via Comcast.

 

Currently, Angelica is running the BMT Entertainment Management Division, where she works with actors, singers, and social creators to help shape their careers in film, TV, commercials, theater, voice-over, and music. She divides her time between Los Angeles, CA, and Brooklyn, NY, managing her daughter's career and overseeing BMT Productions, which encompasses music videos, films, TV projects, and musicals.

 

Angelica's dedication to nurturing young talent and sharing her love for the arts remains unwavering. She continues to create, manage, and inspire the next generation of performers, leaving an indelible impact on the entertainment industry.
