This chaotically funny play is one of the top ten most produced plays in America, and Curious brings it to town for a needed break before the 2024 election to laugh our stars and stripes off and cheer on the mighty women who keep our country running! This all-female cast will feature some of the funniest, fiercest actors in Denver.

The second play in the season has been called “a masterwork,” “scathing,” and “audacious,” all words Curious courageously embraces. Downstate, winner of a Drama Critics Circle, Outers Critics Circle, and Obie award, shares the story of four men convicted of sex crimes who share a group home post-incarceration. When a man shows up to confront his childhood abuser, it becomes hard to locate the line between justice and retribution. Directed by Curious Company Member and Artistic Producer, Christy Montour-Larson, the show is by the Pulitzer Prize-winning author of another Curious favorite, Clybourne Park.

The brilliant writer Dominique Morrisseau, who wrote Detroit ‘67, Skeleton Crew, and A’int too Proud to Beg, comes back to the Curious stage with her latest work. Morrisseau is a master at weaving together personal, historical, and social narratives, and this show is considered her most ambitious yet. This visionary play explores institutional racism through the dual lenses of Sara, an enslaved rebel turned Union spy, and Sandra, a tenured professor in a modern-day private university. The regional premiere that leaps through time to trace the stories of these two Black American women has been called “luminous,” “engrossing,” and “surprisingly funny.”

Curious Theatre Company presents A Case for the Existence of God, a riveting production by Samuel D. Hunter, acclaimed playwright of “The Whale.” This regional premiere of the Broadway hit offers a poignant exploration of the lives of two single fathers, expertly directed by local luminary Warren Sherrill. Delving into their connection forged by a shared sense of melancholy, Hunter’s masterpiece promises an unforgettable theatrical experience, challenging audiences to contemplate life’s deepest questions with profound insight and emotional resonance.

Get ready for an unprecedented theatrical experience! Our upcoming TBA may currently be shrouded in mystery, but one thing’s for certain – it’s new, never-before-done at Curious, and going to be the hottest ticket in town. Stay tuned for a groundbreaking production that promises to captivate and redefine your expectations.
