Advance tickets are now available for 2011-2012 Performance Series events at the Pocahontas County Opera House. This season includes local favorites, such as the Black Mountain Bluegrass Boys and Juanita Fireball & The Continental Drifters, nationally recognized artists Leon Redbone and John McCutcheon, and exciting new groups like the Veveritse Brass Band, The Steel Wheels and Caravan of Thieves. Get your tickets today so you’ll know there will be a seat for you when you get in the door. All tickets are general admission, and seating is still first come, first served, so it’s always a good idea to get to the Opera House early. To order tickets, visit our events section, and select the performance you’d like to attend.

The 15th Annual Allegheny Echoes summer workshops are here! The program brings three fun events to the Opera House this week: a Tuesday evening square dance, the Thursday evening Student Concert, and Friday evening’s Staff Concert. Each begins at 7:30 p.m. Admission is free! Hear WVMR’s interview with Allegheny Echoes President Mike Bing.

Advance tickets for all 2011-12 Performance Series events will be available for purchase start June 22. Beat the rush at the door and get your tickets now, knowing that you’ll have a seat at the Opera House even if dinner before the show goes a little late. After June 22, simply click the listing for the event you’d like to see for ticket information.

Season Tickets for this year’s Performance Series are now available. A season ticket purchase saves you more than 25% on admission to Opera House as compared to buying your tickets at the door for each performance.

Ordering a season ticket for yourself or as a gift for a friend or family member is a wonderful way to show your support for keeping the performing arts alive and well in Marlinton and Pocahontas County.

And having a pair on hand at your local business gives you a unique way to entertain your clients or reward employees with a memorable evening at the Opera House. If you own a lodging establishment, having a couple of season tickets on hand is a great way to treat your guests to a night out in Marlinton.
