Powered by GoogleThis place is not like it was customer service and communication appear to have declined, and there is a growing concern that people are treated differently based on appearance or perceived financial status. A community establishment should welcome and respect everyone equally. It may be time for leadership that values professionalism, fairness, and genuine community connection. This place needs definitely new leadership it’s so sad and it has declined drastically.
I have been fortunate to be a part of several productions here, mainly musical theater. We have a wonderful theater experience here in our own area. Check it out today.
The Playhouse Merced is a cute little theater that hosts a wide variety of plays. The cast and crew always pull out all the stops to put on a great show. In spite of the small venue (it's cozy!) the shows are always well done, interesting, and entertaining. Prices are quite reasonable too, making it easy to treat yourself and family to a night out. Check out their website for the season schedule and purchase tickets online ahead of time for best seat selection (assigned seating pretty much all the time).
Took in the opening night of Godspell, the first play of the new season at Playhouse Merced. The very hard working cast does a great job with this difficult and demanding musical and the band is on fire.
such a great idea for children. my granddaughter took a three week class and loved it..about 70 adorable humans performed Willy Wonka Jr.. this was so awesome
