A Curious
First-Timers Guide
Welcome to Curious.
Whether you’ve been to theatre for years or this is your very first time, you belong here.
We’ve put together this guide so you can feel at ease—so you can focus less on logistics and more on being present in the room, where the work comes to life.
What to expect, at a glance:
- Come as you are—there’s no dress code
- Arrive about 30 minutes early
- Most shows run 90–120 minutes
- You don’t need to “know” anything before you come
Curious @Cleo
A new home for this season.
While our theatre at 1080 Acoma Street evolves, Curious Theatre Company is performing at the Historic Shorter AME Building, home of Cleo Parker Robinson Dance.
A space rooted in history, artistry, and community—we’re honored to welcome you there.

Seating
We have additional accessible seating available in the center section. These seats are reserved to meet individual accessibility needs and will be assigned on a case-by-case basis.
What Should I Wear?
There’s no dress code—come as you are. We just ask that you wear shirts and shoes.
Concessions

Accessibility
We are committed to making our theatre experience accessible to all.
Current offerings include:
- Digital playbills available online
- Assisted listening devices available upon request
- Relaxed performances with a more flexible, judgment-free environment
We continue to expand accessibility options and welcome feedback.
Our Welcoming Environment
We strive to create a space where people of all backgrounds, identities, and experiences feel welcome.
This means:
- A culture of respect and openness
- Stories that reflect a wide range of voices
- An environment where you can show up as you are
We are always learning and evolving in this work.
