    Description

    Melodyland was a theater in Anaheim, California down the street from Disneyland that opened in 1963 as a theater and concert venue that operated independently until it was purchased by a local church in 1969.  The venue was demolished in 2009.
    While it was open as a theater, Melodyland hosted a number of popular shows that had appeared on Broadway.  Often there was a star of some note as the lead while local talent was added in minor roles or as extras.
    I have a number of souvenir programs of theater presentations starting in late 1964 and continuing until early 1966. Many also include the playbill. Apart from the performers who performed on stage, these programs promoted Las Vegas heavily and the graphics design-wise reflect the mid- Century styling of the 1960s.
    Jayne Mansfield performed in this production of "Gentlemen Prefer Blondes" on a nationwide tour in 1965.
