Irvine in the Past
Back then (mid-1980s), Irvine had no legitimate arts venue, no children's musical theater company and no prior history of sustaining performing-arts ventures. The now-defunct Irvine Community Theatre, which very occasionally put on musicals, was attracting small crowds in the Village of Turtle Rock. The Irvine Symphony Orchestra had gone under and the New York String Quartet, in residence at UC Irvine, had disbanded [link widoczny dla zalogowanych], leaving the city with no professional music ensemble, nor even a community orchestra. Ballet Pacifica, although now extinct, had not even made the trek from Laguna Beach to Irvine, so Irvine had no ballet company.
But now, Irvine boasts the 756-seat Irvine Barclay Theatre and two high school theaters that seat more than 500 apiece. There is a community orchestra (Irvine Valley College Orchestra). There are, at last count, four (count 'em! four!) musical theater companies with children and/or teens as their focus (Musical Theatre Village, Orange County Theatre Company, Musical Theatre Academy of Orange County and Standing Ovations Productions). Fountain Valley-based Festival Ballet Theatre, which bought the "Ballet Pacifica" name, has opened a second school in Irvine and gives all its productions at the Barclay. And Irvine is home to more dance studios than any other city in Orange County.
Irvine in the Future?
Once upon a time, in a land called Irvine, there existed a civic light opera company. But after two productions that played to less-than-quarter-full-houses, that civic light opera company folded. And there never was an attempt at another civic light opera company ever again.
But can Irvine now support a civic light opera company? The poor economy aside [link widoczny dla zalogowanych], what makes current times more conducive to having one exist now than 'way back when (some 25 years ago)? A quick examination will supply some answers.

There would be a building process that would take several years and require everyone's patience and support – a great deal of support, both monetary and moral. Said company might also be a testing ground for untapped talent and new material, part of an "Off-Off-Off Broadway" (or "Off-Broadway West") with other small, independent and community theaters in Orange County. Irvine could boast the only part-experimental musical theater company in the county [link widoczny dla zalogowanych], a county that only has only one professional civic light (in
The point here is that there is more of a theatrical arts backbone in Irvine now than there was when the Irvine Civic Light Opera was trying to make a go, in what was then a seeming cultural desert. Like Las Vegas, that desert has been carefully cultivated and growth has been happening and continues to happen. And the important key is that there is a large pool – musical theater, dance studios, orchestras, etc. – from which to draw the talent needed to build a strong civic light opera company. The trick is to draw out the audiences, to make people want to see musicals staged in Irvine on a more lavish scale than any of the children's theater companies can afford (although not taking anything away from the very valuable services those companies provide). The Barclay, for example, might even be open to a collaborative venture with some fledgling, Irvine-based civic light company, just to get it started. But such a company has to begin with something small – something along the lines of "The Fantasticks," "You're a Good Man, Charlie Brown" or "I Do! I Do!," all which require small casts, minimal sets and a musical combo.
