Classics, Romantics, and Modern Works, or CRM, is gaining in popularity as a favorite annual performance to see Colorado West Performing Arts Company (CWPAC) artists in. This full-length performance includes a variety of variations and pas de deux from popular classical ballets, as well as original contemporary works to show the versatility of our artists that you've grown to see in various roles. The array of dancing, costuming, and emotions you will walk away with makes this performance the perfect way to enjoy a date night or to treat your mother for Mother's Day. This performance features thirteen professional company artists, three trainees, and commissioned work from guest choreographers. The show is under two hours including a 20-minute intermission. Opportunities to meet the cast and take photos will follow each performance in the auditorium. Thanks to the support of a generous underwriter, CWPAC is able to offer accessible ticket pricing for this performance, ensuring more families and community members can experience the beauty of live professional ballet.

Join Matthew and our comedians for an intimate exploration of our newest exhibition, Contemporary Masters – The Wednesday Group, featuring artwork by Daniel Sprick, Mitch Caster, Emily Olson, and many others. Limited tickets available (20 spots only). You might've seen BK Sharad at the Netflix is a Joke Festival or in one of his viral stand-up videos with millions of views. His unique perspective—shaped by his experience as a former emo, hockey-playing, first-generation Indian millennial—delivers a fresh and hilarious outlook on life. Sammy Anzer is a national touring headliner who has performed everywhere from Aspen to the Apollo. He's written for Kevin Hart's LOL Network and performed alongside Kevin Nealon, DL Hughley, and Maria Bamford. Rooster Magazine in Denver describes his performances as blending "joy with contemplation," offering insightful societal commentary that inspires reflection while maintaining an uplifting atmosphere.

in the Rocky Mountains and found her real home. As a child, church performances dared Faith to dream of a life and career in the entertainment world. She began writing songs and performing live whenever she had the chance.
