"Coming to America: The Pursuit of Happiness" is a multi-media production to stir the heart, the spirit and the imagination. It uses dancers, music, and actors, -- and a large screen backdrop portraying historical images and video of events to complement the stage performance. The show takes the audience from Biblical times to the history of our Native Americans, from the discovery of America to the sacrifices of World War II and sorrows of 9/11, and it pays tribute to the more recent tragedies of Sandy Hook and Boston. America is shown as Gods great experiment  gathering diverse people from far away places, of our sacrifice and most of all our great achievements. At this important time in our history, we must reflect and ensure that the true American spirit lives on.

SIMBT uses the powerful mediums of dance and theater to prepare young dancers to pursue spirit-filled, hope-filled, meaningful lives in the world of theater.

An important part of our mission is to share the unique live-theater experience with diverse audiences in the Greater Philadelphia Area. SIMBT is touching people in a profound and positive way. Director and Founder Ms. Lee says, SIMBT/PSPA does not do recitals.
