The Last Five Years
Now - June 29 2008
Galleria Theater - Denver Performing Arts Complex

The Last Five Years is an intimate musical chronicling the five-year relationship between two New Yorkers, Cathy and Jamie, from their first meeting to their last goodbye. The Last Five Years is a powerful and personal look at marriage told from both points of view – Jamie’s story begins at the first meeting and follows through to the couple’s ultimate breakup, while Cathy relates the story in reverse, from falling out of love back to the first spark of romance. This innovative storytelling structure makes for a show nearly entirely comprised of solo songs, with the actors meeting just once in the middle of the show in a duet.

A Chorus Line
May 5 - May 17, 2008
Buell Theater - Denver Performing Arts Complex

In an empty theatre, on a bare stage, casting for a new Broadway musical is almost complete. For 17 dancers, this audition is the chance of a lifetime. It’s what they’ve worked for — with every drop of sweat, every hour of training, every day of their lives. It’s the one opportunity to do what they’ve always dreamed — to have the chance to dance. This is A Chorus Line, the musical for everyone who’s ever had a dream and put it all on the line. Winner of nine Tony Awards including “Best Musical” and the Pulitzer Prize for drama, this singular sensation is the longest-running American Broadway musical ever. Now A Chorus Line returns.

Avon Walk for Breast Cancer - Rocky Mountain Walk
June 28-29, 2008

Everyone has a personal reason for taking part in the Avon Walk for Breast Cancer. It may be a sister, mother, best friend, or possibly even yourself. But for one weekend, whether you walk or volunteer, we’ll all be reaching for the same goal—finding a cure for breast cancer.

The Avon Walk for Breast Cancer is a weekend-long event that brings together thousands of participants for two days.  The beautiful, scenic route is a great way to see the Rocky Mountains in a whole new light while making a significant contribution to the breast cancer cause.

Proceeds from the Avon Walks are awarded by the Avon Foundation for breast cancer medical research; access to care; support services; education and awareness; and screening and diagnostics.  From 2003-2006, more than $150 million was raised by the Avon Walk series. In addition to raising significant funds, the Avon Walks spread awareness and education about breast cancer, and reminds everyone that early detection helps save lives.

Avon Walk for Breast Cancer events will take place in 9 cities in 2008:Register to join today, and prepare for a life-changing journey. Click here for more information and to register.
