SETTING THE

STAGE The 2022/23 season was the Denver Center for the Performing Arts’ first full season back following the pandemic, and what a season it was!

We were delighted to revive Theatre for Young Audiences, public tours, post-show Talkback discussions and Broadway student matinees. We were amazed at the creativity our production team brought to every original show, especially the premiere of Theater of the Mind, which was the second-largest production in the DCPA’s history.

We were proud that The Whale, which our Theatre Company premiered in 2012, made its way to the big screen capturing two Academy Awards. We were astounded that nearly every show met or exceeded its sales goal.

We were grateful for our 350 team members who shared their talent, passion and enthusiasm through 44 ticketed events, numerous community programs, and 2,500 classes and workshops.

Their commitment each and every day was, and continues to be, inspiring.

Finally, we were honored to announce our five-year strategic plan. It is our path forward and our guiding light.

And…it starts with you.

Our first goal is to create 1 million engagements annually, which will require us to maximize participation, revisit past programs and consider new opportunities. It is reliant on your active participation, so we must listen, learn and cultivate programming that resonates.

Vladimir Script Janice Sinden

We invite you to join us in this next act of what continues to be a meaningful, heartfelt and enriching story.

Warm regards, Vladimir Script

The highly anticipated Theater of the Mind by multi-media artist David Byrne and writer Mala Gaonkar was a defining moment for DCPA Off-Center. Based in neuroscience, the immersive production tested audience’s perceptions as they moved through pivotal memories loosely based on Byrne’s past. The 21week production received international media attention, including coverage in The Washington Post and “60 Minutes.” This achievement, as well as another successful engagement of Camp Christmas, catapulted Off-Center to a 542% increase in attendance since 2019, cementing Denver as the hub for immersive experiences.

THEATRE COMPANY

DCPA Theatre Company had a successful season, meeting or exceeding sales goals for all seven productions. The lineup included The Chinese Lady, which enjoyed considerable community support; a playful presentation of Shakespeare’s Much Ado About Nothing, and an extraordinary production of The Color Purple, whose Maiesha McQueen brought the house to its feet every night as Celie.

Additionally, the Company hosted its Colorado New Play Summit with the world premieres of Hotter Than Egypt and Laughs in Spanish plus readings of four new plays in development.

THEATRE FOR YOUNG AUDIENCES

This season marked the return of Theatre for Young Audiences. Designed for PreK through third-grade students, Little Red, an adaptation of the classic Little Red Riding Hood, was reimagined with a gardening grandma, woodland animals and a wolf who needed help finding his way through the forest. Nearly 14,000 students enjoyed their very first live theatrical performance, 4,000 of whom also participated in a pre-show workshop to enrich their experience.

ARTISTIC IMPACT

BROADWAY & CABARET Across the galleria, DCPA Broadway offered up shows from two seasons simultaneously. First, as a culmination to its 2020 season, the team presented many shows that had been postponed due to COVID-19.

At the same time, newly announced titles filled out the performance calendar. The lineup included the longawaited tour of To Kill a Mockingbird, the return of Riverdance to celebrate its 25th anniversary, and the sensational smash hit, Mean Girls. New this year was the Broadway Community Seats program, which enabled the DCPA to distribute seats that would otherwise go unsold to groups who would otherwise not be able to attend.

Also, in the intimate Garner Galleria Theatre, locals enjoyed returning favorites such as an updated Forbidden Broadway and The Secret Comedy of Women. New to the space was Miss Rhythm — The Legend of Ruth Brown, which was created by local performers Sheryl McCallum and David Nehls during the pandemic and developed into a full cabaret show for the 2023 season.

IMPACT Sales to groups of 10 or more grew by 37%, serving nearly 25,000 ticket buyers.

Nearly 1,800 accessible tickets were sold, growing by 131%.

EDUCATION & COMMUNITY ENGAGEMENT

The DCPA’s Education and Community Engagement efforts aligned with several of the organization’s goals, namely to create 1 million engagements, foster collaborations, and maximize the use of spaces.

Education has long-served the full life-cycle of students ages PreK through adult. Through acting classes, school programs, tours, and post-show discussions, theatre serves as a springboard for academic success.

In addition to relaunching Theatre for Young Audiences, the DCPA continued to rebuild its educational offerings. Attendees at Student Matinees tripled from the previous season, participation in Dramatic Learning workshops nearly doubled to enhance curriculum for 16,175 students, class enrollment grew 27%, and Book Stars boosted literacy for 25,000 students.

The Bobby G High School Musical Theatre Awards returned to pre-COVID levels, serving 50 schools statewide while the Middle & High School Playwriting Competition grew to 120 schools.

Plus, Shakespeare in the Parking Lot performed at 60 schools for 11,423 students.

The Education and Community Engagement team also facilitated workshops for its cultural peers on student social emotional development, developed curriculum for Inside the Orchestra and offered free or low-cost studio space.

COMMUNITY ENGAGEMENT

PEERS & PARTNERS

This season the DCPA engaged the community, built new audiences, and elevated awareness of the SCFD, which is a stated goal in our strategic plan.

CAPU and DCPA at the Auraria Library

To complement The Chinese Lady, Community Engagement partnered with the City of Denver’s “I Am Denver” project and Colorado Asian Pacific United to explain the history of Denver’s once-thriving Chinatown.

Similarly, to complement The Color Purple, the DCPA collaborated with the Blair-Caldwell African American Research Library to curate a lobby display that honored the contributions of Colorado’s African American women.

The team also invited Colorado Mamba Orchestra to entertain at Saturday Night Alive, partnered with the Mexican Cultural Center to host Mariachi Joya at Camp Christmas, and co-produced a performance with the Mexican Cultural Center and the Consulate General of Mexico to celebrate La Fiesta de la Guelaguetza.

To broaden participation, the organization distributed nearly 5,000 dress rehearsal tickets, took Shakespeare in the Parking Lot to 11 community centers, and led an awareness campaign for DCPAccess $10 tickets.

Following the SCFD mantra that we are better together, Theatre Company invited casting directors to its local auditions, while Education and Community Engagement hosted a Conversation on Accessibility featuring Phamaly, ConsultAbility, IDEAs, and artists with disabilities.

Plus, Off-Center promoted the Japanese Arts Network’s production of ZOTTO and collaborated with members of the local immersive community on the Denver Immersive Gathering.

Finally, team members also represented the organization at area events including PRIDE, Posada Navideña, Five Points Jazz Festival, DragonBoat, and Aurora’s Global Fest, among others.

VENUE IMPACT

Our strategic plan encourages the DCPA to maximize the use of its spaces; this season saw a renewed interest in events following the pandemic. The DCPA welcomed more than 100 events in the Seawell Ballroom and Directors Room, plus its own Women with Hattitude, Saturday Night Alive fundraisers and In Conversation with David Byrne.

Saturday Night Alive continued to be a highlight of the social scene. For the first time, participants chose between two Theatre Company productions — Hotter Than Egypt or Laughs in Spanish. Plus, Denver Mayor Michael Hancock was presented with the Daniel L. Ritchie Spotlight Award to recognize his advocacy in securing $31.1 million in bond funds to benefit the Bonfils Complex renovation.

The DCPA also worked with Denver’s Arts & Venues to broaden access and increase activation at the Arts Complex. Construction began on an accessible restroom for the Garner Galleria Theatre, videos explaining accessibility services were created, and the CU Experience Gallery featured work of costume artists Meghan Anderson Doyle and Kevin Copenhaver in a free exhibit.

The organization continued to host Phamaly, provided a tactile tour for the Colorado Center for the Blind, and worked with Denver Public Schools’ “Transition to Independence” program by inviting more than 20 students with disabilities to work as volunteer ushers.

IMPACT As rental events continued to grow, the Seawell Ballroom welcomed more than 40,000 guests, an increase of 82% over the previous season.

Thanks to Mayor Hancock’s administration, the DCPA benefited from $31.1 million in Build a Better Denver, Elevate Denver and RISE Denver bond funds.

BOARD OF TRUSTEES & MANAGEMENT

Executive leaders embraced goals outlined in our strategic plan including creation of 1 million engagements, expansion of SCFD partnerships, and prioritization of sustainability — namely workforce, finance, environment, and facilities and venues.

Locally, the DCPA explored ways to be in service to organizations including the Denver Housing Authority, Denver Urban Renewal Authority and Colorado Inclusive Economy.

Nationally, leaders participated in the Broadway League, Performing Arts Centers Consortium and Theatre Communications Group, which provide research, resources and advocacy.

To support international visitation, President & CEO Janice Sinden traveled to England with Visit Denver to discuss economic development, tourism and trade, while Broadway Executive Director John Ekeberg was elected President of the Independent Presenters Network to help build and expand theatrical relationships in North America, the UK and Japan.

At home, sustainable practices were implemented including digital study guides and programs, aluminum water bottles, and an Xcel Energy audit to reduce environmental impact.

Sustainability extended to team members too, as the DCPA worked to expand upon its equity, diversity and inclusion efforts. The organization improved work-life balance, expanded its employee wellbeing support by renovating restorative wellness spaces, lowered insurance costs, added intimacy coaches in rehearsal rooms, identified learning opportunities for inclusive practices in theatre production, expanded internal awareness of significant cultural and historic observances, established a lending library to support ongoing learning, reinstated affinity groups and learning spaces, and broadened its “Culture of Belonging” program to launch a new “Culture of Community” training.

Finally, the Board and staff recognized the passing of individuals who made a significant impact on the DCPA: Edward Payson Call, Founding Artistic Director of the DCPA Theatre Company; Isabelle Clark, Trustee and philanthropist, and Cathie Gagnon, 30-year veteran of the Theatre Company.
