I absolutely love this complex in Denver. Many different theater options and sizes and great shows from Broadway, traveling and as well as local. Highly recommend seeing a show here. Plenty of lodging and dining options nearby if you don’t want to drive home. Love that you can order your intermission drinks in the beginning and they get waiting for you at the bar at the beginning of intermission. Staff throughout are top notch and friendly. Picture is from the play Shucked which was very good and funny.
