Main Street Theatre & Dance Alliance firmly believes that EVERYONE should have the opportunity to participate in the arts through the classes and programs offered by MST&DA.

Handprints of many of the MST&DA's founders

Not only do our programs build up confidence and allow talent to blossom, but the Theatre also provides a “safe haven” on the Island, where new friendships can grow and flourish in an atmosphere of acceptance and wholesome activity. That is why each year we provide for as many scholarships as we can afford. But we want to fund more.

That’s where we can use your help. All these good things don’t come without a cost. Tuition fees and ticket sales do not begin to cover the costs of providing a quality teaching staff, mounting the impressive annual productions and providing scholarships to those in need. We depend on the generosity of our community and our friends to make up the difference.

We hope that you will help MST&DA continue to serve the children and adults in our community. PLEASE SEND IN A DONATION TODAY TO THE ADDRESS BELOW OR CALL US WITH YOUR PLEDGE. We’re counting on you...and so are the theatre’s many children!
