Passion for the performing arts runs high in the South Bay, but that passion can mask the sacrifices and tireless efforts made by artists.

A performance by PASACAT, a Philippine performing arts company based in National City is shown.

“When you're passionate about something that drives you," she said."That lights the fire under you to keep moving, to keep going on striving for better.” Along with some grant funding, Cabato credits a small team of contracted employees, a board of directors and PASACAT’s alumni for helping the organization survive and provide a family to generations of Filipino Americans.

“Within just one week we would have three producers of productions come and want to rent the space," she said."But there was an in-house group that wanted to use the space. And there was basically nothing available.”
