Sky Performing Arts was born when the board members of Off the Wall Theater and Take a Bough Productions joined together to form a single community theater. Actors, techs and audiences throughout Puget Sound are invited to share the joy of live theater with this diverse new group.
For thirteen years, East Snohomish County has enthusiastically supported two separate performance groups, Take a Bough Productions and Off the Wall Theater. Both groups have drawn talent and audiences from the Puget Sound area for quality theater productions. In May, 2004, the groups combined on a joint venture, "My Fair Lady", a first-class show which received enthusiastic community support. Following that success, both boards convened to discuss whether the area might be better served by a single community theater, one which could offer opportunities for performance and performing arts education. These discussions gave birth to Sky Performing Arts. Evergreen Youth Jazz and "In the Mood", formerly sponsored by Take a Bough, also now perform under the auspices of Sky Performing Arts.
Sky Performing Arts presents three shows per year - fall, winter and spring, consisting of dramas, comedies, musicals and childrens' shows. "In the Mood", a USO-style 1940's Big Band revue returns each holiday season, re-written and revised annually. This show features a 17-piece swing band, some talented vocalists, and even some cut-up comedians. Bring your dancing shoes for this one!
