The Community Arts Theater Society (C.A.T.S.) was established in 1994 as a non-profit theatrical organization designed for community participation in bringing high quality theater, as never before seen by a volunteer organization, to the Big Bear Valley.
Those familiar with producing musicals and plays for the stage are astounded that C.A.T.S. is able to produce such high quality productions and for the most part, this is due to the true "Community Spirit" that the Community Arts Theater Society embraces. 
Community support comes from ticket sales and Angel donations.   The souvenir programs for each event is self-supporting through participation by local businesses.

We are proud to announce that our productions are funded, in part, by a grant from The California Arts Council. All donations to C.A.T.S. are tax deductible and will be used for expenses related to major productions and workshops. 
To further enhance your theater experience, several local merchants have offered special package deals which may include the following: Discounts on lodging, show tickets, dinner and after show deserts.

We encourage you to visit the merchant of your choice to see further details on their offerings. We also put together a listing of links to local restaraunts, hotels and B & B locations.

Announcing Our
2010 Season
The Community Arts Theater Society (CATS) is pleased to announce its 16th consecutive season of quality theater in the Big Bear Lake valley.

Last year proved to be a very successful season, and the Community Arts Theater Society's 2010 Season promises to be even better as we move forward with the construction and completion of our very own Warehouse Theater.

As C.A.T.S. productions enjoy increasing popularity, advance ticket purchases are strongly recommended. Several shows last year were Sold Out, disappointing many who waited until the last minute to purchase tickets.
