For the first time at SMCT, a live band supports this performance

Andrea Hilbrant as Patsy Cline

Andrea is thrilled to be fulfilling a lifelong dream in Always… Patsy Cline. This marks her third production with SMCT, having previously appeared as Mimi in Comedy of Tenors and Emma in The Prom. Andrea has had the pleasure of performing with several theaters, including Utah Festival Opera, Oregon Cabaret Theatre, Performance Riverside, The Grove Theater, and PCPA here in Santa Maria. She studied acting at PCPA and was later hired as an acting intern, where she had the unique opportunity to understudy both women in Always… Patsy Cline. This show has long been on Andrea’s bucket list, and she is incredibly grateful for the opportunity to bring it to life.
​
Andrea would like to dedicate this performance to her late grandmother, who first introduced her to Patsy Cline. Her grandmother’s home was always filled with music and love, and those memories continue to inspire her. Special thanks to everyone involved in making this production a reality, you will never know how much this has meant to her.
