Curious Theatre Company

About Us: 

The mission of Curious Theatre Company is to engage the community in important contemporary issues through provocative modern theatre.

“No guts, no story” embodies the ethos of Curious Theatre Company. Established 18 years ago by a vanguard Artistic Company that has since grown to 27 professional actors, designers, and directors at its core, Curious brings the best new theatre to Denver, producing thought-provoking plays designed to challenge ideas, stir emotions, and leave audiences thinking and talking for days.

Under the artistic leadership of founding Producing Artistic Director Chip Walton, Curious Theatre Company reaches more than 18,000 individuals each year through: five main-stage productions; the innovative Curious New Voices youth education program; the unique Denver Stories original play commissions that honor area luminaries; and a range of Curious 360º audience enrichment activities.

A recipient of more than one hundred local and national awards, Curious includes among its most prized accolades the 2011 Denver Post Ovation Award for Best Year by a Theatre Company, 5280 Magazine 2011 Top of the Town Editor’s Choice for Best Theatre Company, Westword Reader’s Choice for Best Theatre in 2012, the 2013 Colorado Theatre Guild’s award for Outstanding Season, and the Westword awards for Best Theatre Season and Best Theatre for Contemporary drama in 2015.
