You Give. We Give.

About

As a local nonprofit 501(c)3 musical theatre organization, in addition to entertaining, we believe our musical productions can and should do more. In 2015, San Diego Musical Theatre launched the “You Give. We Give.” campaign to prove that musical theatre connects us and our audiences to bigger issues within our community. Each season the “You Give. We Give” campaign raises awareness and gives monetary support to other local non-profits by partnering each show with a related organization. Any donations collected at the theatre during the run of our shows go to help support the missions of both our YGWG partner and SDMT. We are proud that, since the inception of the YGWG campaign, we have given over $51,000 to some wonderful organizations.

Current Partner

For our current production of Matilda, SDMT is proud to be partnering with the San Diego Public Library and their Summer Reading Program! The SD Public Library operates as the region’s largest public library, serving a population of over 1.4 million individuals, and is dedicated to being a hub of knowledge and lifelong learning. With hundreds of outreach programs and over 5 million books, the SD Public Library offers free access to these incredible resources and consistently engages some of the most underserved communities in our city. Through our run of Matilda, SDMT will be supporting the library’s Summer Reading Program which encourages children and adults to engage in both literary and physical fun all summer long. Last year, nearly 32,000 individuals participated, and we hope that this year even more will be able to take advantage of this incredible program. We are honored to partner with such an incredible organization as the San Diego Public Library during the run of our production of Matilda!
