Little Shop of Horrors may not be the happiest musical, but there's something about a plant wreaking havoc on a bunch of downtrodden folks that might offer a bit of momentary schadenfreude. And if you don't get it from that, Town Hall's production is likely to scratch your itch for a well-designed production bursting with talent.

Whether it's for the performances, the music or all the moments that made you laugh, Disaster! is one of those nights at the theatre you'll be talking about long after you see it.  

Breckenridge Backstage Theatre is excited to announce its 2017-18 season. The line-up for Backstage's 44thseason features six musicals including two premieres, two revues, and two musical theatre favorites as well as a beloved farce, a unique evening of comedy, and theatre for and by children.

Down on Skid Row, there's a flower shop that eats people. Currently, that little shop has rooted itself just outside of Denver.

Lovable plus-size teen Tracy Turnblad has only one desire - to dance.  And dance she does through her downtrodden neighborhood, through the harsh put-downs of her schoolmates, and through the racial barriers dividing 1960s Baltimore.  When she gets the chance to be a dancer on the "Corny Collins TV Show," Tracy ignites a rock 'n roll revolution among her friends, defuses racial tensions, and finds love against all odds.  Big heart...big hair...and a great big hit!  Winner of 2003 Ton Awards including Best Musical!

An eclectic group of six mid-pubescents vie for the spelling championship of a lifetime. While candidly disclosing hilarious and touching stories from their home life, the tweens spell their way through a series of [potentially made-up] words hoping to never hear the soul crushing, pout inducing, life un-affirming 'ding' of the bell that signals a spelling mistake. Six spellers enter; one speller leaves! At least the losers get a juice box
