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.
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.
If you want to feel like you've saved the world (or at least died trying), there's a theatrical experience for you.
We don't always get to choose our family.
There's a certain youthful feeling you get from 1960s music.
If you've ever thought, "They'll turn anything into a musical"…well, you're not wrong.
It's clear the instant she takes the stage, we're in the presence of a legend.
As a long time thespian, I have seen first-hand what happens when a performance does not go according to plan.
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.
In Cherry Creek Theatre's current production of A Little Night Music, the talented storm the stage to produce a cohesive and clean production.
As children grow older, it is almost a requirement to leave the world of princesses and fairies behind you.
In Candlelight Dinner Playhouse's current production of Nonsense, things go awry after one of the Little Sisters of Hoboken accidentally poisons more than half of the nuns.
If you're like me, there's probably a lot you didn't know about A Bronx Tale before settling into your seat.

Opera is not just a classical style of performance.
You probably remember a few random details of your life on the day of the September 11th attacks.
Most musical theatre fans would probably agree the movie-musical Xanadu isn't the finest.
Art, as we know, is subjective.
Did you ever have an imaginary friend as a child? Perhaps something like a "heffalump" or even fairy godparents? Creative minds will take children far, but what about an adult man whose best friend is a six foot tall invisible rabbit? We might say he is in need of some psychological assistance.
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.
It's no secret that entertainment culture has an obsession with sequels and beyond.
If you're looking for a musical about cannibalism, it's no surprise you'll find it at The Bug Theatre.
