The Scientific & Cultural Facilities District (SCFD) provides the free admission, funded in part through the 0.1% sales and use tax. There’s no catch, just come on down to the DCPA and get in line around 4:00 pm the day of the play, pick up your ticket when the box office opens at 4:30, go grab a bite to eat at one of the great restaurants in the area, and then enjoy the play at 6:30. This week’s play is Plainsong, description below. Don’t miss out on this great opportunity to enjoy an award-winning play for FREE!
Plainsong
January 24 · 6:30pm · Stage Theatre
A Denver Center World Premiere
Set on the high plains of eastern Colorado, this adaptation of the New York Times best-selling novel unflinchingly portrays love and loss in a small ranching community. A school teacher is left alone to care for his vulnerable sons, while two gruff bachelor brothers – knowing little about life beyond the ranch – awkwardly offer a home to a pregnant teenage girl. As their lives intertwine, they survive harshness and cruelty to recreate family and community. Warm, stark, unsentimental, yet poetic – this story taps a deep well of human emotion.
