The Great American Melodrama

We hope you have a wonderful day celebrating all there is to be thankful for.

See you next year... It is with profound regret that we announce the cancellation of this year's Christmas production. Given the resurgent pandemic, and a lack of guidelines for the reopening of the performing arts industry, we simply cannot produce the show. It breaks our heart because we know The Holiday Extravaganza is an integral part of so many families' holiday celebrations. We hope that early next year we can return to producing the high-quality family entertainment yo...u've come to expect. In the meantime, we wish you a healthy and happy holiday! For those of you who have already purchased tickets to this year's show, we will automatically credit your account and you can use the balance on any show next year. It will take us time to go through all the reservations, so please be patient, but we will make it happen. If you wish to discuss an alternative solution, please contact the box office at 805-489-2499 or email us at [email protected]. We're currently closed, but we will get to all messages. All the best to you and yours, The Melodrama

Wishing everyone a Happy Halloween, stay safe and happy haunting.

Thank you to KSBY for covering the difficulties faced by the Melodrama and other arts organizations struggling to stay afloat. Hopefully we’ll have the guidance we need to safely reopen soon!

***UPDATE*** Our truck has been recovered! Huge thank you to the San Luis Obispo County Sheriff's Office and the Highway Patrol. And thanks to all of your for keeping an eye out. We hope to see you all at the Melodrama soon!

PLEASE HELP! We didn't think anyone would do such a thing, especially while we are closed for Covid. But, it appears as though our beloved shop truck was STOLEN. Last week someone came into our parking lot and drove off with our little 2000 Ford Ranger flatbread. Its not worth much, but it sure made our lives easier at the Melodrama. She's red, has a wooden flatbed and guard rails, and is a manual V6. If you see her around town, or if you hear of anyone peddling Ford Ranger parts, please drop us a line. She wasn't one for the spotlight, she stayed off stage, so we don't have many pictures, but here is one thanks to our friend Brandon. Thanks so much, we hope to see you soon!
