Along with the entirety of Staten Island’s theatre community, SIST mourns the passing of Paul Guest Smith, a legend who steered the growth of our artistic souls and dedicated a lifetime to the pursuit of excellence on all our local stages. Paul is seen below in 2019’s Judgment at Nuremberg, his last of many productions with SIST. Good night, sweet prince . . .
