Ricky Melton Live
Nov 14, 2025 @ 8pm Comedy
Recently dubbed by a fan as “a mix between Rodney Carrington & Wheeler Walker Jr.”, Ricky Melton is quickly becoming one of the most talked about touring comedians on the road today. An absolute force on stage, his act is equal parts comedy, music & absurdity.
For nearly 15 years Ricky has been making audiences around the country laugh with his stories of growing up in the “not best” circumstances, falling in (and very much OUT) of love & even the occasional witness of a murder. All of his stories are true AND all are set to the soundtrack of Ricky playing his guitar and singing his original and outlandish country music songs that are sure to bring a smile to your face. Well, bring a smile to your face if you are not uptight and/or bashful around dirty words.
As the opening act for Artie Lange on his 2017/2018 theater tour, Ricky has performed at some of the country’s finest venues, as well as some of the country's worst venues, and everywhere in between.
Tickets for this show are $15 in advance and $20 at the door.

Travis Stevenson is hitting the stage at the Wallace later this month and bringing some hilarious comics with him! Come check out the first in a serious of shows where Travis brings some of the talent he's discovered on his comedy tour across the country. More about Travis: It’s not easy to transition from East Tennessee Trailer Trash to a Wannabe Hipster, but Just like a vegan Slim-Jim, stand Up Comedian Travis Stevenson is attempting to do just that. Travis found his way to the stage 3 years ago and quickly became one of the fastest growing comedians in the region, even winning “Bristol’s Funniest”. Travis draws inspiration from growing up in the Middle of Nowhere Appalachia to deliver fast paced comedy, hilarious stories, and social commentary all while trying to shake the stigma of growing up poor.

History of the Wallace Building
Wallace's Discovered
One of the first renovation projects was to remove the old awning and strip the paint on the brick. We were expecting to find brick behind the awning, and the plan was to install a hanging sign in it's place.
Once the awning was removed, everyone was surprised to find old building signage from the 1950s with the text Wallace's.
Discovering the history and purpose of Wallace's was going to take some research.
Wallace's Shoes
After making a few calls, I was able to find out more about the old building signage. The Johnson City library was able to pull a business directory from the 1950s. It was discovered that Wallace's was a shoe store next to the popular Betty Gay women's clothing store. The Wallace's shoe store was first seen in 1955.
Wallace's Shoes was ultimately dissolved as a company in the 1990s, but the amazing discovery left quite an impact on me.
Wallace Theatre
Before the old signage was discovered, I had already decided on a name and logo for theatre. However, once I saw the original retro logo it made me completely change directions. I really loved the aesthetics and retro look of the old Wallace's logo.
I hired a designer to capture the feel of the logo but update the text to Wallace Theatre. The new logo was meant to have a similar design to the old logo but add a modern touch to it.
In the end, it felt like the decision was made for me.
