A TOUGH ACT TO FOLLOW!
In the musical Curtains, Lieutenant Frank Cioffi sings a song called “A Tough Act To Follow,” which describes every show we do at South Bay Musical Theatre, where the shadows of our past glories continue to inspire us. For over half a century, we have endeavored to raise the bar on the quality of each new production. Click on any of the covers below to open the program for that show.
