SUMMARY:The Upstart Crow presents Much Ado About Nothing by William Shakespeare | Aug. 27 - Sept. 6
DESCRIPTION:TICKETS\nBeatrice: “I wonder that you will still be talking\, Signior Benedick. Nobody marks you.” \nBenedick: “What\, my dear Lady Disdain! Are you yet living?” \n– Act I\, Scene I\, Much Ado About Nothing \nThe Upstart Crow Theatre presents Much Ado About Nothing\, a play that feels less like a 400-year-old classic and more like a messy lovers’ quarrel you keep pretending not to watch as it gets louder. \nNot judging. \nRemember those two friends who are constantly roasting each other\, but everyone knows they’re secretly obsessed? That’s Beatrice and Benedick. Their friends are busy playing matchmaker to get them to finally admit it. Meanwhile\, the “perfect” couple (Hero and Claudio) is falling apart because of one guy’s bored\, petty drama. It’s basically a high-stakes soap opera with better insults. Director Jeremy Elman digs in to find the grit\, the deception\, and the messy reality of forgiveness. \nIt’s funny\, sure. But it’s also human in a way that might catch you off guard. \nFast. Sharp. Dangerous. Theatre. \nSpecial Events: \nThurs 8/27 – 7pm\, Name Your Price Night (no ticketing)\nSun 8/30 – 2pm -*TALKBACK: Stay in the Carsen Theater after the show for an informal conversation with the cast and crew.\nMon 8/31 – 7pm\, Industry Night fundraiser (no ticketing)\nThurs 9/3 – 7pm\, Name Your Price Night (no ticketing)

SUMMARY:Dramatheurgy presents: Undertow
DESCRIPTION:TICKETS\nA community’s fears are stoked into paranoia by a mysterious force\, who uses the town to summon itself into their reality. But is it the residents of the fictional seaside town — or the audience — who is doing the summoning? \nUndertow is an improvised theater production\, featuring original music by Jared Allen Lacy\, that premiered at the 2026 Denver Fringe Festival. \nUndertow is a surrealist horror piece that uses thematic elements of the Weird and the Eerie (Lynch\, Vandermeer\, Eggers\, Danielewski\, etc.) to explore the psychodynamics of residents of a small coastal town who find themselves living under an authoritarian regime\, and the mutual reinforcement between community atomization and oppression.

SUMMARY:The Lion King Storytelling Experience
DESCRIPTION:TICKETS\nAn unforgettable one-man storytelling experience inspired by one of the most beloved stories of all time. \nWhat if The Lion King was more than a movie? \nCreated and performed by Andy Dooley\, The Lion King Storytelling Experience is a funny\, moving\, and surprisingly powerful live performance that uncovers the deeper hero’s journey hidden inside the story. \nThrough storytelling\, comedy\, unforgettable characters\, and audience participation\, The Lion King comes alive in a way that will make you laugh\, think\, and maybe even see yourself in the story. \nNo prior Lion King knowledge required. Whether you’ve loved the movie for years or have never seen it\, the experience stands completely on its own. \nThis isn’t just something you watch. \nIt’s something you step into. \n“A one-of-a-kind experience full of humor and wisdom. You can’t help but get swept up in the story… and before you know it\, the story is your story too.” \n— Karen M. \n“It felt like a spiritual teaching wrapped inside a hilarious\, heartfelt performance. I left with so many beautiful takeaways.” \n— Francesca Marie Carles \n“I was completely immersed… laughing\, inspired\, and deeply moved.” \n— Aspen Perlick \nWhether you’re a lifelong Lion King fan or simply looking for a memorable night out\, you’ll leave with a full heart\, a fresh perspective\, and a story you won’t soon forget. \nYou’ll laugh. \nYou might get emotional. \nAnd somewhere along the way\, you may discover that The Lion King isn’t just Simba’s story. \nIt’s yours. \nThe previous performance at the Dairy Arts Center sold out. Advance tickets are recommended.

SUMMARY:Motus Theater Presents: No Contract by Kirsten Wilson | Sept. 17-Oct. 4
DESCRIPTION:TICKETS\n \n“No Contract” is a one-woman show exploring a mother’s request not to endure dementia. It asks: “is there a way to have dementia without tragedy\, when ‘to be or not to be’ is always the question?” \nCreated by Kirsten Wilson in honor of her mother and loved ones everywhere\, experiencing or caring for people with dementia. \n“No Contract” is a one-woman show by Kirsten Wilson about her mother’s dementia –Marie Wilson\, founder of ‘Take Our Daughters to Work Day\,’ LGBTQ+ leader\, author\, and equity-based feminist. \nThe dramatic ‘contract’ at the heart of this two-act performance is her mother’s request to be killed if she loses her mind. The production blends autobiographical storytelling\, “Hamlet\,” “King Lear\,” karaoke\, and audience engagement to explore the complex tension between choosing life and death—the “to be and not to be” of assisted suicide after a dementia diagnosis. \nIn “No Contract\,” Wilson uses humor & heart to prevent both the performance & her mother’s life from becoming a Lear-like tragedy. As Wilson says in Act One\, “My mother’s life was always supposed to be a romantic comedy\, a 1950’s musical\, except with lesbians dancing in the street. I will not let it turn toward tragedy.” \n*Note Wednesday\, 9/30/26 is a show for immunocompromised people. This show provides the following: Audience capacity is at 30% to provide space for two empty seats between audience members. KN95 masks must be worn by performers and audience members. Air filtration used. 6 feet of space between performers and front row. 6pm performance. See separate Dairy ticketing page to signup. \n**Note Saturday\, 10/3/26 is an all-day workshop and performance: \nSaturday\, Oct. 3rd\, “No Contract” Dementia\, Reflection and Writing Workshop with Kirsten Wilson. Take a day-long deep dive into the impact of caring for family members with dementia or negotiating your own fears of losing your mind with celebrated facilitator and artist Kirsten Wilson. This is an opportunity to gather in community to use the performance to launch your own reflections and writings on the impact of dementia and fears associated with aging. The morning will begin with a performance of Act I\, followed by personal reflections\, writing and discussion on dementia. After a shared lunch within small reflections groups\, a performance of Act II\, with a facilitated dialogue\, writing exercises and reflections. No skill as a writer necessary\, just willingness to courageously explore caregiving\, our mortality\, and dementia in community. (Lunch included in workshop fee). See separate ticketing page to sign up. \n  \n

SUMMARY:Motus Theater Presents: No Contract by Kirsten Wilson - Performance for Immunocompromised Audiences
DESCRIPTION:TICKETS\n*Note: This show is for immunocompromised audiences. This show provides the following: Audience capacity is at 30% to provide space for two empty seats between audience members. KN95 masks must be worn by performers and audience members. Air filtration used. 6 feet of space between performers and front row. 6pm performance. \n“No Contract” is a one-woman show exploring a mother’s request not to endure dementia. It asks: “is there a way to have dementia without tragedy\, when ‘to be or not to be’ is always the question?” \nCreated by Kirsten Wilson in honor of her mother and loved ones everywhere\, experiencing or caring for people with dementia. \n“No Contract” is a one-woman theatrical work written and performed by Motus Theater’s artistic director\, Kirsten Wilson\, about dementia in relation to her mother\, Marie Wilson—founder of ‘Take Our Daughters to Work Day\,’ LGBTQ+ leader\, author\, and equity-based feminist. \nThe dramatic ‘contract’ at the heart of this two-act performance is a mother’s request to be killed if she loses her mind to dementia. The production blends autobiographical storytelling\, “Hamlet\,” “King Lear\,” karaoke\, and audience engagement to explore the complex tension between choosing life and death—the “to be and not to be” of assisted suicide after a dementia diagnosis. \nIn “No Contract\,” Wilson uses humor & heart to prevent both the performance & her mother’s life from becoming a Lear-like tragedy. As Wilson says in Act One\, “My mother’s life was always supposed to be a romantic comedy\, a 1950’s musical\, except with lesbians dancing in the street. I will not let it turn toward tragedy.” \nThrough Wilson’s advocacy amid systemic failures in elder care\, the piece invites caregivers\, LGBTQ+ residents\, and aging Coloradans to see their experiences reflected and engage in community dialogue on equity\, dignity\, and end-of-life care.
