When Helen's lesbian partner of twenty years dies unexpectedly in minor surgery, Helen and her daughter want answers. Confused by the hospital's silence around the death, they bring a lawsuit against the doctors. Now Dr. Becca Neal must confront her feelings about losing her patient while she juggles the demands of a lawsuit. Love Alone tracks the fallout in both the patient's and the doctor's homes, as both households navigate uncharted waters of anger, humor, and longing. This powerful story of how we grieve and how we heal speaks to an essential truth: We will all be patients one day.

You probably have an idea of what you're getting yourself into if you're going to see The Toxic Avenger musical with Longmont Theatre Company. Much like its '80s cinematic counterpart, it's campy and doesn't take itself too seriously.

If you're looking for a musical about cannibalism, it's no surprise you'll find it at The Bug Theatre.

Since Dear Evan Hansen launched its tour in Denver, my Facebook feed has been filled with friends obsessing over its emotional magnitude, and rightfully so. The Tony-winner for Best Musical is a powerful piece. It tackles the kinds of subjects you don't often see in musical theatre.

I'm probably not the only person catching their first professional production of Oklahoma! with the Denver Center Theatre Company. While the first Rodgers and Hammerstein collaboration has been performed plenty since its Broadway premiere in 1943, the DCPA's production is unique-nearly the entire cast is comprised of African-American performers.

You won't hear me complain about a musical with male strippers, but I got a lot more than I bargained for with The Full Monty, now playing at Rocky Mountain Repertory Theatre.

Let's be honest - you probably know exactly how you feel about Annie before you take your seat. You're either set to swoon over the spunky little orphan or groan after she reprises 'Tomorrow' a third time.

It's hard to believe The Book of Mormon is already on making its 4th return to Denver. Since premiering its tour in Denver in 2012, the mega-hit returned in 2013 and 2015, yet it's still one of the hottest tickets. And are we really surprised?

Even though its source material is a children's book, The Secret Garden plays on stage with a complex emotional maturity.

The winners of Colorado's Bobby G Award for Outstanding Performance by an Actor (Elisha Horne) and Actress (Abby Lehrer) are currently in New York City as finalists for the National High School Musical Theatre Awards (The Jimmy Awards), which recognizes excellence in high school musical theatre across the nation. The students will make their Broadway debut this Monday, June 25, at the Minskoff Theatre in a ceremony hosted by Broadway star Laura Benanti.

Vintage Theatre's production of Bullets Over Broadway will continue its final performances this weekend with Court Clark (pictured as the far right hot dog) in the role of David Shayne, replacing Damon Geurrasio, who stepped out due to injury. 

The Who's rock opera has come a long way since its 1969 release as a concept album.

Musicals generally give me all kinds of feels, but Passing Strange hit me deep. Give me an existential journey and I'm totally on board, but present it the way this musical does, and it could change the way you look at your own life.

Art isn't easy, but the Arvada Center has the kind of finesse to make it look that way.

There are some kinds of magic you think might be only possible with genies--and then Disney creates another Broadway musical.

Nowadays, you can argue anything is art. But I've never questioned if graffiti was. The bigger question is where it belongs, examined in DCPA Off-Center's latest feature.

First Date was not the first dating show I've seen at the Denver Center's Garner Galleria Theatre. And it probably won't be the last. But it's definitely my favorite so far.

A Kid Like Jake, by Daniel Pearle, is Benchmark's second-season opener. Directed by Warren Sherrill, the engaging one-act examines modern parenting and how society can pressure children out of authenticity.

If you think you've seen Into The Woods too many times, allow Performance Now's current production to change your mind.
