Off-Center, the newest and most unconventional arm of the Denver Center for the Performing Arts (DCPA) has announced full details for their off-site collaboration at Stanley Marketplace, Travelers of the Lost Dimension.

Written by and featuring Denver-based comedy trio A.C.E., Travelers of the Lost Dimension is a 360-degree experience where audience members can make their way through various public spaces throughout Stanley Marketplace, touch objects, play games and find themselves inches away from characters.

"We are really looking forward to a new type of audience immersion with this show," said Charlie Miller, Curator of Off-Center. "With our recent production of Sweet & Lucky, we occupied a 16,000 square foot warehouse and built an immersive world for the audience to explore. With Travelers of the Lost Dimension, we are excited to be working throughout public spaces at Stanley Marketplace, creating a story that will change how audiences perceive the world around them."

"We're big fans of collaboration, and we leaped at the chance to work with the team from Off-Center," said Bryant Palmer, Chief Storyteller at Stanley Marketplace. "They excel at producing one-of-a-kind theatrical experiences, and we're building a marketplace in an old aviation manufacturing facility with a rich history. That sounds like a perfect combination to us."


Travelers of the Lost Dimension

March 16-April 23 (Opens March 18) | Stanley Marketplace

Take a ride that's quicker than light....faster than time...to a world that's just like ours...but not! There's a dimension that exists a breath away from our own, undetected by those who live parallel to it. The mysteries of this strangely similar world have been lost for eons...until now. With wit, wonderment and some dubious technology, a ragtag group of explorers will brave an inter-dimensional journey to discover the fantastical realm in the beyond. Open your eyes a little wider, step out a little further and leap into an adventure comedy of your imagination.

Travelers of the Lost Dimension will feature the following company (listed alphabetically): Diana Dresser, Adrian Egolf, Barbara Gehring*, Linda Klein*, Leigh Miller, Bruce Montgomery, Matthew Taylor*, Nanna Thompson. *Members of A.C.E.

Tickets for the production are now available at TravelersDenver.com. Please note that each performance is limited to 45 audience members and some performances are already sold out.

Opening in 2016, Stanley is no ordinary marketplace. Located at the intersection of the Stapleton and Aurora neighborhoods just east of Denver, Stanley Marketplace is a community of like-minded businesses and people who believe in doing things differently: sustainably, creatively and with more than the bottom line in mind. The more than 22-acre, 140,000 sq. ft. indoor/outdoor space was once Stanley Aviation headquarters, where airplane ejector seats were engineered and manufactured; now it is an adaptive reuse community hub, home to a park, beer hall and more. Today, the same innovative spirit that once filled this building has been harnessed to offer community members an urban marketplace featuring goods and services from local and independent businesses, as well as a robust philanthropic and community outreach program, including Charity of the Month and First Jobs programs. For more information, visit www.stanleymarketplace.com or @ohheystanley.

A.C.E., a Denver based comedy troupe made up of an American, a Canadian and an Englishman, was formed by actors Linda Klein, Barbara Gehring and Matthew Taylor in 1998 and quickly grabbed the attention of HBO during the US Comedy Arts Festival auditions that fall. Greatly encouraged by that response, A.C.E. has gone on to write and perform over 50 unique theatrical productions, travel the world and earn many accolades including Best of Denver and induction into the Colorado Improv Hall of Fame. The threesome has also produced a television pilot, released a comedy album and debuted on national television in "Across America."
