On July 11, 2025, Beth Fath was rushed to Baptist Hospital with a near-fatal case of acute mesenteric ischemia. A major clot deprived Beth of blood and oxygen, and she survived four surgeries in three days to remove the blockage. Beth was then intubated for a week and eventually spent nine weeks total in the hospital – four at Baptist Health and five at UM Jackson. The ischemia has left Beth non-ambulatory, and she is now wheelchair-bound. This event has forever changed Beth and Tim’s future, and they are adjusting to a new life that involves constant doctor visits and physical therapy.
As many of you know, Beth and Tim are the owners and driving force behind Miami Children’s Theater, one of the most successful young person’s theaters in the nation. They need your help. The medical, travel, and therapy costs are astronomical. Please contribute what you can to ensure a healthy recovery for Beth.Â

A MAJOR announcement from Miami Childrens Theater that is six months in the making: we are ready to open up Miami Stage Costume – a seventeen hundred square foot warehouse that has thousands of costumes and props for local theaters, television and movie production companies to rent from. This has been a labor of love by Beth Fath @bethfath , who for thirty-five years has assembled an exquisite inventory with her impeccable taste. Curated by Beth Fath and managed by the amazing Amanda Enriquez @fabulace2 , Miami Stage Costume immediately becomes one of the premier costume and prop rental venues in South Florida. The beauty of Miami Stage Costume is that it is an equally great resource for middle and high schools theater programs to costume a show but also a tremendous venue for TV and film stylists as the inventory has tons of vintage and couture pieces spanning even decades.
