Toni Aybar
Theatre Arts


Welcome to Theatre Arts!  My name is Toni Aybar and I am the Theatre Arts teacher and Brighten Broadway Director at Brighten Academy.  This is my 12th year at Brighten, my 9th directing Brighten Broadway, and my 6th year teaching Theatre Arts as an enrichment class.  I'm super excited to be offering Theatre Arts to Elementary School this year in addition to my Middle School classes!

My awesome husband Jeffrey and I have two amazing boys - Alex, who is a sophomore at Indiana University studying Musical Theatre and Film/Television Media, and Evan who is a freshman at Georgia State University studying Game Design and Interdisciplinary Studies in Media.  Our family is very actively involved in church and community theatre.  When I'm not teaching or directing, we love to travel and hike and I love to curl up with a good book (or three)!  I'm looking forward to a fun and productive year!  Please feel free to contact me any time at
