I just wanted to thank the dancers and staff of Colorado Ballet for the recent Tour de Force performance. My wife and I have been subscribers for a few years now and love Colorado Ballet. I was especially moved by the recent Tour de Force performance. It was beautiful and magical. The music, choreography and especially the dancers came together to make this one of my most memorable Ballet experiences ever! Christophor Moulton and Chandra Kuykendall partner so very well. Their first dance together literally took my breath away, but that was not the only stand-out dance. The entire performance just kept delivering! I truly wish I could see it again.

I am inti puppets, marionettes, and it seemed logical to visit here as I was staying only about 40 minutes away. From the 'school set up and workshop' to the manipulation of a great puppet show...great fun and done with expertise. Well worth a visit. AND go next door for some yummy cake and coffee. !!

What fun! Myself, 3 kids (age 10-14), my parents were the attendees. We all loved it and were super impressed with Scotty's skills. We've been discussing for days on theories of how he pulled off the "tricks". It was very crowd interactive which made it more special. Scotty also conveyed a powerful life message that relationships with each other is the most important thing in life. Great to have that reinforced to my privileged kids. My only critique is that the show was short at 80 minutes. We were eager for more.

We have been to a number of shows at the various venues within the complex. The Buell is always phenomenal, as is Boettcher Concert Hall. The whole atmosphere inside the complex is electric! There is almost always live music going on and lots of places to order food or drinks and just sit and absorb the vibe.

As I looked about the 'theater in a circle' seating, noting the souls who had braved Denver's weather Tuesday night I wondered, 'What joins us, as different as we all are, in this place, to do this thing?'. Two hours later I knew the answer: Great Art. We are all separate universes really, each of us; but Great Art can, by the conceived and intentional effort of great writing, great staging and especially great acting, wrest us from our separateness and join us in a single vast mind, in a single moment in time, to share an understanding, a laugh, a guffaw, a puzzlement and most especially 'awe'. From Viola's (Mehry Eslaminia) opening soliloquy, robust in its authenticity, through the shared metanoia of Olivia's (Krystel Lucas) awakening from her sadness all of us in the audience became part of the troupe, part of the story, part of the grand understanding. The performances by the legendary cast were rowdy, irascible, impertinent, and, at the same time, through the perfection of their personal transformation of themselves into living canvas, trans-formative. A 500 year old story, shared anew, every bit as amusing, informing, entertaining and elevating now as it has been. If you are in Denver between now and Dec 22nd, and you wish to see real theater the way it is performed in NYC and at the Globe - then you must try to see 12th Night at the Stage (Denver Center Theatre Company). You will cry from laughing, you be shocked at the context of famous lines you have heard all your life, and you will be more, when you leave, than when you arrived; this I guarantee!
