The musical production was a magical and wonderful experience.Should be Broadway Bound! Broad appeal
We have attended many performances at PCPA over the last 13 years. They have all been top quality - good acting, staging, sets, sound, music, etc. It's in the half round, and all seats have a good view. Very comfortable theater.
I have been going to productions staged by this college and group for over 30 years. They utilize the Marian Theatre at Alan Hancock college in Santa Maria and the Solvang Outdoor Theatre (in summer). I just saw their production of "Peter and the Starcatcher", which was excellent. I have a degree in Theatreso I am not a fan of overacting or cheesy live theatre. I have never seen anything resembling anything except high quality from this organization. You should go see one of their productions!
Good for small events like childrens plays. Not a bad seat in the place and ticket prices are pretty reasonable.
Charming outdoor theatre. All seats are great. More than anything I enjoyed the cast. Four talented young men. Show is filled with humor and upbeat 50's / 60's music to enjoy by all. Excellent choreography . Don't miss out on this great production! You won't be disappointed .
Saw Forever Plaid at the theater in Solvang. What a great way to spend the evening!! The show was so good! Absolutely loved it!!!
We have been going to see the plays at PCPA for years. They have top notch actors/actresses in the plays. Even though some are students, they are outstanding. We have never seen a bad play or players all these years.
I'm a theater superfan and see literally everything that's produced in NYC. This has made me jaded and not easy to please, even with Broadway these days. I thought our tickets to Oklahoma! would be just a cute diversion on our trip to Solvang. Not so! This was a top-notch production, as good as and better than many things I've seen in NYC recently. Talented actors, great direction, adorable theater. They just need to work on their sound system and they'll be perfect. All around, a really lovely night and I wouldn't hesitate to go back.And yeah. Pack a sweater. I failed on that one.
I have had season tickets for two years now and I haven't seen a bad performance yet. The students and instructors, who make up a sort of repertory company, are talented, professional and always a delight. Do you love musicals? You're in luck, they produce several each season, including some original ones. I highly recommend them to residents and visitors alike.
PCPA puts on top notch shows both in their Santa Maria theatre and Solvang outdoor theatre. If going to the outdoor theatre (even in the summer) bring jackets and blankest. They rent them to you, but bring your own. Pack a picnic and eat dinner before the show on the theatre lawn.
