Savannah Performance Alliance strongly believes that the Savannah performing arts community is just that: a community.  A diverse collection of creative producers, directors, actors, singers, dancers, designers, technical crew, and more that are strong on their own but strongest when they come together to unite behind a common goal of bringing the arts to Savannah and the entire coastal region.

Our Story

For the Arts!

Savannah’s first true home for patrons, organizers, and venues of live performing arts.

Savannah Performance Alliance was founded in 2018 by Executive Director Chris Bass, who has lived in Savannah since attending the Savannah College of Art and Design. He is an IT professional and actor who has performed with many theaters in the Savannah area. Through this experience he identified the need and benefit of having communication between the different entities in the performance community.

Savannah Performance Alliance now exists to encourage collaboration, communication and the coming together of our performance community and beyond. SPAs long term goal is to make Savannah recognized as a destination for excellent stage performance in the Southeast.

He was joined by Rick Garman, founder of the Savannah Cabaret and an award-winning screenwriter.  Rick firmly believes that “high tides raise all boats” and was thrilled to be a part of the Savannah performing arts community, but saw an opportunity to make it even most vibrant than it already was by encouraging collaboration.  They (but mostly Chris) launched the first version of OnStageSavannah and together they have been working to develop it into a robust platform for both patrons and producers of the arts.

Kinetic Stages founder Ryan McCurdy joined the team in 2024 as a Consulting Producer. Ryan’s first appearance on a Savannah stage was as Akela in the early-2000s Cultural Affairs production of The Jungle Book (dir. Bob Patterson), and he has been a passionate supporter of Savannah’s performing arts community ever since.
