Theatre for Everyone

At OpenStage, we believe that theatre should be accessible to all. That's why we perform in a variety of venues, from the intimacy of non-traditional spaces to the grandeur of the Fort Collins Lincoln Center Magnolia Theatre. We also offer Theatre in the Park, bringing the joy of live theatre to the great outdoors and making it easy for you to walk in, bike in, or drive in to enjoy a show. With food trucks on-site for many of our performances, we encourage you to make an evening of it and savor the full OpenStage experience.

We are proud to work with over 150 local theatre artists each year, fostering a vibrant creative community that drives the success of our productions.
