Things to do in Cape Cod, Cape Cod: The Best Performances

April 22, 2022 Frederic Celentano

The Atlantic crashes on a coastline strewn with quaint harbors, windswept beaches, glorious dunes and blinking lighthouses. Explore Cape Cod National Seashore, bike past cranberry bogs on the Rail Trail or saunter around Sandwich, the Cape's oldest town. Many areas are architectural and culinary gems - full of weathered shingles, whaling captains' mansions, chowder shacks and upscale dining delights. Don't miss Woods Hole Oceanquest, famed Martha's Vineyard or charmingly upbeat Provincetown.

Monomoy Theatre

The Monomoy Theatre is supported by the remarkable Chatham and Cape community as well as the University of Hartford and The Friends of Monomoy Theatre. Unlike so many summer theaters where the students serve as apprentices with the task of supporting professional designers, technicians and performers, the Monomoy Theatre is a student driven operation. We engage professional theatre artists to serve, in a very real way, as teachers, mentors and examples for the students to follow and from whom the students can learn. In twelve weeks, eight shows ranging from hit musicals to Shakespeare are designed, rehearsed, built and performed. It's a fast-paced, enriching and extraordinary creative environment that provides a challenging and rewarding artistic experience to these talented young artists as well as our audiences. The Monomoy Theatre has launched many successful careers and offers a theatrical experience you are unlikely to find anywhere else in the country. Visit us this summer!

Cape Cod Melody Tent

One of the oldest continuously-operating tent theaters-in-the-round in the US, along with our sister venue the South Shore Music Circus in Cohasset. A 2,300-seat summer, open-air theatre that hosts national artists and comedians on a revolving stage. No seat is more than 50 feet from the stage!

Reviewed By sjasonm - Falmouth, United States

The Melody Tent is a Cape Cod landmark. Each summer the tent offers a variety of top name entertainment under the tent. The schedule for 2018 won't be released until spring but you can be assured it will include an assortment of summer stock entertainers. Shows that were announced for the 2017 season included the return of local favorites, An Evening with ABBA The Concert, The Temptations & The Four Tops, and the Cape Symphony. New shows in 2017 included Pink Martini at the South Shore Music Circus, and TajMo: The Taj Mahal and Keb’ Mo’ Band which is new to both venues. More shows are being added all the time. Don’t wait to get your tickets. Spring and summer planning has begun for beach towns and you don’t want to miss out on your favorite acts. The show selections included Country genre, Jazz, Bonny Rait, and much more. If you plan to be on Cape in 2018 check out the Cape Cod Melody Tent web site for 2018 season events and order early. Great shows sell out fast!

The Beachcomber of Wellfleet

Reviewed By RJB1215 - Fort Lauderdale, United States

Wow! Delicious tasty cape cod seafood offered to beach goers while at Cohoon Hollow Beach. The fried oyster, shrimp and clam poi boy’s were amazingly good! The peel and eat shrimp, buffalo shrimp appetizer accompanied by cole slaw and a few pina coladas made for a great beach lunch. We can’t wait to return. The best!
