    Updated April 21 2009:

    Soaps.com spoke with pal Mike Gold today, who is the President of Soap Opera Mania, On Tour. He was sad to have to tell us that the tour has been postponed, indefinitely. Please review the note he has posted for fans on the website.

    Dear Soap Fans,

    We regret to inform you that Soap Opera Mania on tour has been postponed indefinitely.

    If you have already purchased tickets for an upcoming event, WE WILL BE REFUNDING YOUR MONEY IN FULL DURING THE NEXT SEVERAL WEEKS. We sincerely apologize for any inconvenience this causes you.

    We are disappointed that the tour must be put on hold. Our mission has never wavered: our goal is to bring you a first class, unforgettable, interactive fan event with today’s biggest stars. But we know that soap fans nationwide much they want to attend Soap Opera Mania on tour, the current economic circumstances prohibit many from being able to afford attendance at this time.

    We want every soap fan who wants to attend to be able to attend. So rather than continue the tour where only some of you can come, we are going to postpone our plans until everyone who wants to come can do so.

    We don’t want anyone’s ability or decision to attend to be a burden when we created this tour to be a fun, entertaining, fantasy-filled experience for each of you.

    With our sincerest apologies,

    Michael S. Gold - President
    Soap Opera Mania on tour


    Soaps.com is also saddened to hear this news and hopes that when the economy is better, the tour will proceed.

    Previously Reported on December 16:

    Soap fans all over the nation are about to get a real treat! Come February 7, 2009, the Soap Opera Mania tour will kick off in Macon, Georgia and deliver a fun filled experience for every soap lover!

    Fans will get to meet stars from all eight soap operas including All My Children, As The World Turns, The Bold and the Beautiful, Days of Our Lives, General Hospital, Guiding Light, One Life to Live, and The Young and the Restless!

    The highly publicized celebrity tour will span thirty locations where fans will get the chance to get up close and personal with their favorite stars! City selection will be based on high viewership areas such as Georgia, Ohio, West Virginia, Mississippi, Louisiana, Arkansas, Tennessee, Pennsylvania, Texas, Florida, Michigan, Virginia, Missouri, Illinois, and the Carolinas - just to name a few!

    Not only will this give fans a chance to get out and meet actors they may have never had the opportunity to meet, they'll also get to take part in Q&A and photo sessions, soap opera trivia games and those lucky enough to be chosen will get to act out in some fantasy scenes with their favorite hotties and divas alike! On hand will also be an experienced soap opera director from one of the soaps who will head a workshop, covering what it takes to write, produce and develop the storylines that keep us all on the edge of our seats daily! They'll also take fans down a walk through soap history and give them a little bit of insight into what's yet to come!

    Actors set to appear at a variety of the events will include All My Children's Cameron Mathison (Ryan Lavery), As The World Turns' Austin Peck (Brad Snyder) and Julie Pinson (Janet Ciccone), The Bold and the Beautiful's Winsor Harmon (Thorne Forrester) and Brandon Beemer (Owen Knight), Days of Our Lives' James Scott (E.J. Wells), General Hospital's Greg Vaughan (Lucky Spencer) and Laura Wright (Carly Corinthos), Guiding Light's Murray Bartlett (Cyrus Foley) and Gina Tognoni (Dinah Marler), One Life to Live's John Paul Lavoisier (Rex Balsom) and The Young and the Restless' Christian LeBlanc (Michael Baldwin) and Don Diamont (Brad Carlton)!

    Now that we have your attention, all you have to do to register is visit Soap Opera Mania! As if this opportunity isn't thrilling enough, the first three-hundred fans, from each city, to register will be given a personalized autographed headshot of each and every star set to take part in that area's designated event, a fashionable Soap Opera Mania t-shirt or top and other soap memorabilia! For those who don't qualify, not to worry! There will be plenty of trinkets available for you to purchase to remember this once in a lifetime experience!

    Soap Opera Mania will be an added offering to fans to build up the excitement for the second annual, highly acclaimed, Soap Cruise 2009! Speaking of which, twenty lucky winners attending one of the many Soap Opera Mania events will have the chance to win a trip for two on the Soap Cruise: The Third Voyage, which will set sail in January 2010!

    Stay tuned to Soaps.com's Latest News Room, as we'll be announcing each individual event as it's scheduled!

    Soaps.com is very excited about this event, and we hope everyone who attends has a blast, as Soap Opera Mania promises to give Daytime fans an experience that they will never forget!

    Wow, this is great! Especially for fans in states where fan events don't normally occur. I can't wait to learn more about the dates, cities, etc!

    Posted by Scooby2K at Tuesday, December 16 2008 09:31 PM

    In the immortal words of Greg from "Everybody Hates Chris"...I am soooooooo in there!!!

    Posted by beckysoap at Wednesday, December 17 2008 08:54 AM

    so if i register to receive updates that when it comes to town that i will be part of the 300 to win something automically. this sounds almost as good as the cruises that i am going on. 32 days and counting the one in jan. i am sad to hear that alicia isn't going now. i wish they would peplace her with somebody else. you pay a lot of money and you would like to see all 20 people.

    Posted by mrsbell at Monday, December 22 2008 07:46 AM

    just read about this @ about.com - i'm hoping they come to a city near me!! i'll keep checking their website: celebrityeventsgroup.com/soap.html for updated cities/states. there's going to be at least 8-10 stars at each event!!

    Posted by PelphreyPosse at Saturday, December 27 2008 11:56 AM

    Beckysoap, I don't know where you got your headcount from, but there were originally only 16 actors listed and now with Alicia out, that makes 15, where did you get 20 from?

    Posted by beckysoap at Monday, December 29 2008 06:53 AM

    you are right on the count pelphreyposse. i guess i was hoping 20. it will still be a great cruise without alicia. only 3 weeks left.

    Posted by PelphreyPosse at Wednesday, December 31 2008 12:19 PM

    Yep Becky, it will be here before I can get ready for it, I really am getting excited now that it is getting really close.

    Posted by Tesstellthetruthalready at Tuesday, January 20 2009 10:42 AM

    I just saw that they will be in Philadelphia PA, can't wait to find out who will be there!

    it would be nice if they would hold a gathring in fort myers florida so those whom can't afford both tickets and transportation to other sites can get a chance to go and see their cbs soaps stars from GL, ASTWT, YR, and B&B, it would relly be nice and more fairly for the lower class to have a chance to see them. not everyone is rich, i have been with all these soaps and the old ones that use to be on here before the bold and the beautiful i have watched these with my grandma that raised me since 1960. i was born. id play hookie from school just to watch them with her please make it possiable for those whom cant afford both tickets and travel to see by coming to fort myers fl, once in a while for us to get a chance to visit in person please this is my death wish. and my dream for both me and my grandma that passed away a great women. cowgirldiva77@yahoo.com thanks so much. GOD bless you all.
