Mosley Street Melodrama

Seating is assigned table-by-table as reservations come in, on a first-come, first-served basis. The venue will take table requests but cannot guarantee a specific table. If members of your group bought tickets separately and want to sit together, call the box office ahead of time so the request can be noted; asking to be seated together at arrival may not be possible depending on table capacities.

From February through November, Friday and Saturday evening shows have doors opening at 6pm, dinner served from 6:15 to 7:30pm, and the performance starting at 7:50pm. Select Saturday matinees run on a similar pattern earlier in the day: doors at noon, lunch from 12:15 to 1:30pm, and the show starting at 1:50pm. After Thanksgiving, the Christmas production shifts to a Wednesday–Saturday evening schedule (same door/dinner/show timing) with Saturday matinees continuing on the same pattern; there are no performances on Thanksgiving Day, Christmas Eve, or Christmas Day. Always treat the dinner window as separate from the actual performance start time — the two are not interchangeable.

A typical evening runs long: the melodrama itself lasts about 50 minutes, followed by a 15-minute intermission, then the musical-comedy olio for another 45 to 50 minutes.

The theatre offers dinner-and-show and show-only options, with Floor and Standard seating tiers. Direct reservations can be made through the theatre online, by phone or in person. Review the terms for the booking method you use; the theatre’s direct-reservation policies and a resale marketplace’s purchase terms are separate.

Dinner is served buffet-style, described as a hearty, home-style spread, alongside a fully stocked bar and complimentary popcorn. A vegetarian entree is available and can be paired with buffet side dishes. Guests with dietary needs beyond vegetarian are advised that a show-only ticket paired with a meal elsewhere may be the better option, since the kitchen cannot fully accommodate broader restrictions.

Regular performances are rated PG-13 for mild adult innuendo, and the theatre welcomes guests of all ages to these shows. Separately scheduled "Uncensored" performances carry an R rating and require guests to be at least 18 years old.
