 “This is a company that knows what its audience expects from an evening of theatre!”
LA TIMES
Get ready for a joyful, heart-tugging, and utterly unforgettable event honoring the past while boldly moving on and moving forward as we journey through 66 years of Playhouse and bid farewell to two members of the Playhouse Family!
As cherished Actors’ Repertory Theatre members Graham Silbert (33 years) and Joey Perez (12 years) prepare to take their next steps in NEW YORK, they return to the stage that helped shape them for an evening filled with music, laughter, and hope. Their journey reminds us that theatre is always moving forward, carried by the artists and communities who believe in it.
“The Playhouse is truly a gem in this city, and visiting it should be on the top-of everyone's Los Angeles to-do list.” UCLA DAILY BRUIN
If you’ve ever attended a Family Theatre Musical, taken a class here, or laughed, cried, and applauded through our Jewish Heritage Series, Love In Bloom, Fairytales for Pride, and more - you already know them. And you know how deeply their work is woven into the fabric of this theatre.
Follow Graham and Joey as they reunite with Actors’ Repertory Theatre to revisit favorite moments from Cinderella, Author! Author! – An Evening with Sholom Aleichem, Don’t Start the Games Without Me, Dorothy’s Adventures in OZ, Audition: The Musical, Alice and the Wonderful Tea Party, Dear Gabby, and so much more.
This special event is a joyful celebration of music, humor, and shared memories - an evening that honors not just two beloved artists, but the spirit of the Playhouse itself. More than a farewell, it’s a chance to laugh, reminisce, and celebrate the creativity, community, and sheer delight that live theatre brings to our lives, reminding us why this stage has always been a place of connection, joy, and belonging.
Each performance includes a sumptuous sweets-and-savories reception, and all proceeds support the Save the Main Stage Campaign, helping us restore, renew, and re-envision the heart of the Playhouse.
Joining Graham and Joey for this unforgettable send-off are Karla Bermudez, Holly Gibson, Isabel Lindley, Madeleine LeMay, Michala Peltz, and, of course, Chris DeCarlo and Evelyn Rudie.
Santa Monica Playhouse programs are supported in part by generous grants from the We Are Santa Monica Fund, the City of Santa Monica and the Santa Monica Arts Commission, the Los Angeles County Board of Supervisors through the Los Angeles County Department of Arts and Culture, and Playhouse PALS.
