If you only go out for one night in Durango make sure you dont miss the melodrama. It is like no place else. Step back in time and boo and hiss at the villains and laugh at the vaudeville. Wonderful.

This is a grand old theater with great sound and professional products and shows!

I always have fun at the Diamond Circle Melodrama. I really enjoyed the "after show" with the musical numbers. They are always witty and drop dead funny!

We returned to see Diamond Circle Melodrama’s second show, a melodrama and vaudeville called the "The Spoilers.”. The fast fingered pianist, Nehemiah Powers, was not so prominent in this... More

The Diamond Circle Melodrama is the kind of place where you can'thelp but have a great time. When we went, I didn't have a clue what a "real" melodrama was like - I thought it was all about Dudley Doright and Snidely Whiplash. Boy was I wrong.
