Black Lives Matter

By |2020-06-15T23:39:02-07:00June 15th, 2020|Announcements, Board meetings|

The theatre community, including South Bay Musical Theatre, has come under intense scrutiny for its history of participation in discrimination and racial stereotypes. We are listening. Last month, we paused our 2020/2021 mainstage season and developed new virtual online programming, the SBMT eStudio. We see this as an opportunity to reexamine and reinvent how we deliver on our core values and expand our organization’s vision to amplify underrepresented and marginalized voices. We are engaging with BIPOC (Black, Indigenous, Persons of Color) directors, leaders, and talent to bring more diverse stories and content to this platform. Information will be forthcoming as we [...]

SBMT is thrilled to announce the cast for our winter production of She Loves Me. Ben Hatch, who played Huckleberry Finn last season in Big River, returns as leading man Georg, a perfume shop employee who feuds with new saleswoman Amalia, played by Marie Putko. As fate would have it, the bickering colleagues respond to one another's "lonely hearts" ads in the newspaper and develop feelings for their anonymous-yet-amorous personas. If the plot sounds familiar, you may be thinking of the 1998 movie, You've Got Mail, with Tom Hanks and Meg Ryan—or the classic film The Shop Around The Corner. Take [...]
