If you're familiar with The Second City, you know what to expect from their shows - a clever mix of sketch and improv comedy, throw in musical number or two. And of course the audience gets to play along.

The Wit Theatre Company presents Wish You Were Her/e, an immersive wedding taking place at The Ramble Hotel on Saturday, July 27, and featuring a tale of love and the power of presence.

This Broadway hit features all the best songs for women from such immortal musicals as Mame, Hello Dolly!, Milk and Honey, Mack and Mabel, A Day in Hollywood/A Night in the Ukraine and La Cage Aux Folles.

You might think you've seen the tale of Willy Wonka's chocolate factory enough, but the musical stage adaptation now playing at the Denver Center's Buell Theatre has got plenty of fresh treats to offer.

The Emmy-nominated former writer for The Rosie O'Donnell Show will be bringing his one-man comedy show to the FAC tonight. This is Rudetsky's first major appearance in Colorado.

Fresh out of starring in their spring musical, two Colorado teens are about to make their Broadway debuts this Monday.

If you want to feel like you've saved the world (or at least died trying), there's a theatrical experience for you. The Last Defender, which was conceived at The House Theatre of Chicago in 2016, feels a bit like an escape room…just more theatrical. Currently it's being presented through the Denver Center for the Performing Arts' Off-Center, which has been know lately for its immersive experiences.

Equinox Theatre Company is thrilled to present the third show of their 11th season, The Denver Premiere of Be More Chill. 

The 7th Annual Bobby G Awards, which celebrate excellence in Colorado high school musical theatre, were held Thursday, May 23rd, at the Ellie Caulkins Opera House.

This weekend, Lone Tree Arts Center will be presenting Broadway icon Lea Salonga's Human Heart tour, featuring just two performances on May 18-19.

There's a certain youthful feeling you get from 1960s music. Just ask the rows of ladies in front of me, who giddily sang along, tapping each other on the shoulders and giggling like they were teenagers again.

If you've ever thought, "They'll turn anything into a musical"…well, you're not wrong. Yet somehow, a musical about a competition to win a truck in a small Texas town brings subject matter that might be heavier than the truck itself.

It's clear the instant she takes the stage, we're in the presence of a legend. With a humble salutation, Betty Buckley inhabits the role of Dolly Levi in a way you might expect from the actress whose multifaceted career spans decades.

It opens with a warning: if you're of a 'weaker constitution,' you'd best depart before the story starts, or at least avoid the first couple rows. You should probably just ignore that, because then you'd miss out on some killer theatre. Literally.

If you're still looking for romantic plans for your weekend, Equinox Theatre's 'I Love You, You're Perfect, Now Change' might be your perfect match.

If you're like me, there's probably a lot you didn't know about A Bronx Tale before settling into your seat.

A new rock musical about the creation of the atom bomb is making its regional premiere in Denver, and it has just a few performances left this weekend.

It's easy to see why Elf has become a modern-day Christmas classic, and the 2003 holiday flick starring Will Ferrell makes a smooth transition from screen to stage, even without Ferrell's infectious charm.

You probably remember a few random details of your life on the day of the September 11th attacks. Not just what you saw on the television--but who was with you, where you were, how you felt. On that day, 38 airplanes were redirected to a small Canadian town--Gander, Newfoundland--the site of a large airport the used to handle transatlantic refueling but hadn't much anymore.

Most musical theatre fans would probably agree the movie-musical Xanadu isn't the finest. You've got Olivia Newton-John in as a Greek muse in legwarmers and roller skates, on Earth to help a struggling artist build a roller disco. It's campy at best with some standout songs, visually fun but a reasonable flop.
