“What Would We Do Without You?”
A heartfelt toast and everlasting thanks to our many generous donors, especially our Monthly Sustaining Members. You are a vital part of our “Company,” and we truly appreciate you for believing in the importance of live theatre in our community.
South Bay Musical Theatre is honored to be a recipient of Arts Grants from SVCreates and The California Arts Council. Grants such as these allow SBMT to continue providing the best in theatre to the South Bay.
