On Saturday, August 27, PCPA Theaterfest and the Solvang Centennial Committee hosted the Opening Night Celebration benefit reception for the American Premiere of My Fairytale. Guests had the exclusive opportunity to meet the show's creative team including Stephen Schwartz (composer), Philip LaZebnik (book), Flemming Enevold (creator), Scott Schwartz (director), and Mark Booher (PCPA Artistic Director), while enjoying premium local wines and appetizers created by Chef Bradley Ogden. Check out photos from the event below!

As we come to the middle of November, a number of new shows have just opened, and a few others are getting ready to open - so get out there and support the performing arts here on the California Central Coast with a fun afternoon or evening of theatre, maybe combined with a meal at one of our fine area restaurants!
As we say goodbye to September and hello to October (and all the Halloween trimmings in the stores that go with it!) - we also say hello to a number of shows that have started, or soon will start, their production runs here on the California Central Coast, along with a couple whose runs will soon come to a close.

As we move past Easter (I'm on vacation this week - WOO HOO!) several of our California Central Coast theatres and live performance venues have some GREAT entertainment options for you!
The weather prognosticators tell us we may still get wet a day or two this week - but our Central Coast theatres are warm, dry, and ready to provide you with an afternoon or evening of quality entertainment at a price that'll fit most everybody's budget!
