Denver Center for the Performing Arts

The Denver Center for the Performing Arts (DCPA) is one of the largest nonprofit theatre organizations in the country, annually offering more than 1,400 performances of over 40 different productions, along with hundreds of classes and community events, creating more than 850,000 guest experiences each year.

The DCPA grew out of the dreams of Helen G. Bonfils and Donald R. Seawell, successful Broadway producers, who envisioned a professional acting company with Denver roots and a permanent home in the city. Today, DCPA includes the Tony Award-winning Theatre Company, producing an annual mainstage season of eight classic, contemporary, and world premiere plays handcrafted by our talented team; Broadway, presenting the latest national touring productions on Denver's biggest stages; Off-Center, creating unexpected theatrical experiences that put the audience at the center of the story; Cabaret, presenting intimate and entertaining musicals, comedy, improv and more; Event Services, hosting unforgettable events  in our dramatic venues; and Education and Community Engagement, nurturing a love of theatre through program and community connections across the state. 

As a nonprofit, the DCPA relies on support from patrons like you to continue providing transformational live theatre experiences to audiences of all ages and backgrounds. Your donation provides essential support from first rehearsal to strike for all DCPA productions and education programs. Together, we can live out the DCPA vision to create a more connected and inclusive community, lifted up and drawn together by theatrical storytelling and shared experiences.
