Spain Dial - Star & Summer 2025.png

Dear Friends and Fellow Citizens,

​

The above was drawn by the great Spain Rodriguez for our 1999 Winter Appeal. With the clock approaching the new millennium, the lines were clearly drawn. The military/industrial complex headed by our two-headed super villain Armageddon Man (one part business/one part war) squaring off against our superhero Factwino backed by the workers. Some things never change!

Now 25 years later, The Y2K Panic was a nothing blip followed by a cavalcade of events including 9/11, Iraq wars, the first black president, a global pandemic and now an administration whose Project 2025 playbook reads like Fascism for Dummies. What we know now is that although the super villains remain, the only superheroes are in the Marvel Universe. There are heroes of resistance like Zelensky and heroes of survival like the Ukrainians and the Palestinians in Gaza. Yet for real long-term change, the real superheroes must be we…the people.

As we have moved forward, SFMT shows have resisted the notion that one person, even a superhero, can fix this mess. Our characters are regular working folks trying to navigate these increasingly challenging times without sacrificing their values. Often at a climactic crossroad, they must choose to work for the greater good or be a party to the madness that is destroying our democracy.

This spring many of you were our heroes as your “Cost of Free” donations saved our 2025 summer park season. We are moving ahead with our summer show
DISRUPTION but are still short financially so if you haven’t already, please consider a tax-deductible gift to SFMT. Your donation will allow us to continue using our stage as a bully pulpit for citizen action and help us get through 2025 and into summer 2026.

We can be heroes individually and collectively so that next year an actual representative and participatory democracy will exist to celebrate its 250 th birthday. This is for real and the time is now!
