The Martin City Melodrama opens its 38th season with its Christmas production, Muttcracker Suite, along with a vaudeville revue featuring the Water Glass Symphony, every weekend starting November 25  to January 1, with a special presentation on Monday, December 26. 

The Muttcracker Suite is a live parody of the classic ballet featuring senior dogs from area shelters, Wayside Waifs, KC Pet Project, Gladstone Animal Shelter , Melissa’s Second Chances and Midwest Animal Rescue.  These pawformers, clad in tutus, shine with their canine comedy. Professional actors join the frivolity and also perform the world famous water glass symphony too.

Martin City Melodrama and Vaudeville Co.  first began in Martin City at the current Martin event space, 135th and Holmes, and the company has traveled around the metropolitan area under the direction of its original owner Jeanne Beachwood. 

Martin City Melodrama has made its final home at 702 Blue Ridge Ext. in Grandview, only a five-minute drive from its original location. 

Performances include local actors and incorporate elderly rescue dogs. To purchase tickets for the family fun stage presentation, go to www.martincitymelodrama.org
