Dear Patrons,

Thank you again for joining us for JMT’s production of Sweeney Todd. Your presence and support mean more to us than we can fully express. 

Community theatre is vital. It brings people together, tells meaningful stories, nurtures creativity, and provides artists of all ages with opportunities to learn, grow, and share their talents. Productions like Sweeney Todd are only possible because of patrons who believe in the power of the arts to inspire, challenge, and connect our community.

JMT proudly supports arts education within the Jenkintown School District, helping to foster a lifelong love of music and theatre in young students. We are also excited to share that we have recently expanded our efforts to include student awards for the Cheltenham and Abington School Districts, furthering our commitment to excellence in arts education across our neighboring communities.

If you are moved by the work we do, we invite you to consider making a donation to JMT. Your generosity directly supports our productions and student awards, helping ensure that high-quality, accessible arts experiences continue for years to come. 

Thank you again for being part of our JMT family and for championing the arts in our community. We hope to see you at the theatre again next year.

Make a Donation – thank you! 

With sincere gratitude,
Jenkintown Music Theatre Board of Directors
