How to Conquer America: A Mostly True History of Yogurt at Kilstrom Theatre

Written by David Myers and directed by Margot Borderlon, How to Conquer America: A Mostly True History of Yogurt examines storytelling, ambition, and identity through humor and historical reflection.

Arlene is a pro at controlling the narrative. As an ambitious research assistant in 1975, she created the ad campaign that transformed yogurt from a strange foreign laxative into a lucrative American phenomenon. It would be a success story for the ages—it would—if only her dead dad could stay on script. Can Arlene wrangle this victory lap back on course, or will her father unravel the story she’s written for herself? How to Conquer America: A Mostly True History of Yogurt wrestles with culture, family, and identity in a heartfelt, dairy‑filled take on the American Dream.

How to Conquer America: A Mostly True History of Yogurt is a world‑premiere comedy locally produced by Denver Center Theatre Company and presented by the Denver Center for the Performing Arts. The production runs February 5–28, 2027, at the Kilstrom Theatre in downtown’s Arts Complex.
