Emmy® Winners Nicolas Coster, Mary Beth Evans, & Matthew Ashford.


"It's been a great honor to work with such talented daytime veterans like Mary Beth, Matt, and Nicolas. I was a big fan of Mary Beth's during her years as Katherine Bell on General Hospital, so when I started this journey and my friend and talent manager Michael Bruno asked me to meet with Mary Beth, I knew she would be perfect for the role of Sara. She soon introduced me to Matt (Ashford) who I remembered as Tom Hardy on GH, and always thought he was a wonderful actor. He makes the absolute perfect Steve Jensen. Nicolas (Coster) I reached out to directly via Facebook. I grew up watching his iconic work for many years as Lionel Lockridge on NBC's SANTA BARBARA so it was a great privilege to have him play Bay City's mayor and Sara's dad on The Bay. I truly couldn't ask for a better cast of professionals. We have really become a true family through this venture!" - Gregori J. Martin, Creator and Executive Producer
Mary Beth Evans, Matthew Ashford and Nicolas Coster have each done over 30 seasons of television. Their combined talents bring over 90 seasons of experience, so it should come as no surprise that “The Bay” now in season 3 on Amazon, has become one of the top trending streaming series on Amazon Prime. Many of Amazon’s 50 million subscribers are tuning into “The Bay” set in Bay City. “The Bay” centers around the lives of three powerful families the Garrett’s, the Blackwell’s, and the Ramos’s.
Fan favorite Mary Beth Evans shines in the role of matriarch Sara Garrett. Sara is character that viewers love and root for. They also want to know more about her and are invested in Sara’s evolution and journey. Sara is currently involved in an divorce with her dashing and delightfully wicked husband Steve Jensen (Matthew Ashford). At the same time she is on trial for the murder of her late grandfather Red Garrett (Bruce Davidson), and Sara’s father Bay City Mayor Jack Madison (Nicolas Coster) is working behind scenes to help expose the truth about his daughters innocence and the miscarriage of justice. As the season 3 finale is released today, how will the jury comeback in Sara’s murder trial? Is Steve afraid of the blowback for his underhanded behavior during the trial? You need to #BingTheBay and find out.
