An umbrella organization for resident and touring theater, youth outreach, and conservatory training, the DCPA includes the Denver Center Theatre Company, the largest professional resident theater company in the Rockies. With 40 artists on its payroll, the troupe performs about a dozen plays in repertory from October through June, including classical and contemporary dramas, musicals, and premieres of new plays. Tickets cost roughly $30 to $40. Denver Center Attractions brings in over 10 touring Broadway productions annually. Tickets run $15 to $55. For both companies, many shows sell out well in advance.
