Eli and Edythe Broad Stage

Located at Santa Monica College, the Eli and Edythe Broad Stage is a leading performing arts venue on the Westside of Los Angeles. Since opening in 2008, the venue has welcomed a diverse range of performances, including theater, dance, music, opera, and film.

The Broad Stage’s intimate 499-seat theater provides an engaging setting for both internationally recognized artists and innovative performing arts presentations. The venue also includes The Edye, a smaller black box theater dedicated to presenting new and emerging work.

For Westside Ballet of Santa Monica, the Broad Stage is our home for major productions. Each year, our signature performances—including The Nutcracker and our Spring Showcase & Gala—bring our dancers to this professional stage, providing students and audiences with an exceptional live performance experience in the heart of Santa Monica.
