PCPA Announces Summer Season Featuring COME FROM AWAY, Disney's FROZEN And More

This summer, PCPA invites audiences to enjoy a season of inspiring true stories, family-friendly adventures, and memorable music. Performances run from June 11 through August 23 at the Marian Theatre in Santa Maria and the Solvang Festival Theater.

Experience the true-life triumph of Come From Away, the magic of Frozen, the excitement of Luchadora!, and the energy of Beehive. This season promises theatrical experiences that will move, delight, and inspire, both under the stars and on stage.

Come From Away

Book, Music, and Lyrics by Irene Sankoff & David Hein
JUN 11 – 27, 2026 Solvang Festival Theater

When the unthinkable happens on September 11, 2001, 38 planes are suddenly diverted to the remote town of Gander, Newfoundland, doubling its population overnight. Chaos looms— but instead, something remarkable happens, proving that compassion can outshine crisis. Come From Away is a high-energy, heartwarming musical with a soaring folk-rock score and a true story that will leave you inspired.

Luchadora!

By Alvaro Saar Rios
JUN 18 – JUL 3, 2026 Marian Theatre

Luchadora! reimagines the legend of Mulan in the high-flying world of Mexican wrestling. When a worn pink mask resurfaces, Nana Lupita relives her secret teenage quest to step into the ring and fight for her family’s honor. Packed with heart, humor, and high-flying moves, this vibrant, family-friendly adventure celebrates identity, legacy, and the courage to claim your power.
