Live Theater Takes Center Stage

Mercury Theater, housed in a 1908 two-room schoolhouse, represents a visionary collective of local artists and performers who bring innovative shows to this iconic location.

Cinnabar Theater has been producing opera, drama, cabaret, and musical performances for more than 50 years. Formally in the 1908 building now occupied by the Mercury Theater, Cinnabar expects to make their new home in the Petaluma Outlet Mall and is performing at other locations in the interim. The show must go on!

Visit the Events Calendar for plays and performances throughout the year presented by Petaluma’s active performing arts community.
