OUR MISSION
BroadStage has an unequivocal commitment to supporting and entertaining a diverse community. By presenting world-class and emerging performing arts, providing transformative educational opportunities and inspiring our audience, BroadStage elevates the human spirit and brings us together in shared humanity. OUR THEATERS
The Eli and Edythe Broad Stage at the Santa Monica College Performi

ng Arts Center opened its doors in October 2008. Unlike any performance space in the country, it is sublimely intimate with just over 500 seats and strikingly grand at the same time–allowing eye contact with artists from the boxes to the back row–forging a new kind of artist and audience experience in Los Angeles. Boasting one of the city's largest proscenium stages, BroadStage offers theatre, dance, film, opera, jazz, world music, musicals, symphony and chamber orchestras, family programming and more. Each genre features superlative talent from every generation and around the globe. No other performing arts center west of the 405 can boast such consistently stellar lineups of performers, including André Watts, Anna Netrebko, Sir James Galway, Sutton Foster, Preservation Hall Jazz Band, Mikhail Baryshnikov, Patti LuPone, Aaron Neville, Lee Ritenou, Dave Grusin, Joshua Redman, Lil Buck, Bobby McFerrin, Helen Hunt, Academy of St Martin in the Fields and many others. In addition to The Broad Stage, The Edye, our 100-seat black box theater, presents new, developing and innovative work in theatre, music and dance as part of our Under the Radar Series, as well as offerings from our other genres. Featuring younger, emerging artists, chamber pieces and plays, programming at The Edye reflects the dynamic nature of the space and allows for the latest, most exciting artists to be booked on short notice. BroadStage's Education and Community Programs offer opportunities for cultural exposure through various student events, currently reaching more than 20,000 children, parents, educators and community members every year. Patron Services is available by phone from Monday-Friday, 12:00 pm - 6:00 pm at 310.434.3200. Tickets are available online 24/7 at www.broadstage.org
