ANnouncing our
​2021 SEASON!

Comedy Tonight
​(July 15 - september 12)

We will open this season with Comedy Tonight, a two-act vaudeville revue filled with puns, parodies, song, and dance starring some of your Melodrama favorites. Jam packed with laughter at every turn, Comedy Tonight will have you rolling in your seat. This will only be a two-act two hour evening, so come and dip your toes back into the outside world!

​

Frankenstein’s Bride
(september 16 - november 14)

Our Fall show will be the hit, Frankenstein’s Bride. This horror story spoof hilariously reconstructs the classic tale by injecting it with musical parodies, pop culture references, and witty one-liners. 15 years after the death of Frankenstein’s creation, a mad scientist attempts to reanimate the Creature. What could possibly go wrong? Outrageous characters and devilishly clever performances create a monstrously good time that will leave you screaming with laughter!
​

​

The Holiday Extravaganza
​(november 18 - december 31)

And finally, the classic Holiday Extravaganza. See Scrooge find his Christmas spirit in a heart-warming tale of holiday magic, laugh until your sides ache at the zany characters in a fractured fairy tale opera, and celebrate the music of the season in our Holiday Vaudeville Revue. Our holiday triple bill is a very special family tradition designed to bring a year’s worth of smiles to you and your loved ones in a great musical and theatrical experience! Get your tickets early as this show always sells out.
