DCPA OFF-CENTER

No two Off-Center experiences are exactly alike but they all have one thing in common: putting you at the center of the story. Immerse yourself in an experience unlike any other.

PUTTING THE AUDIENCE AT THE CENTER OF THE STORY

What began in 2010 as a small theatrical test kitchen has grown into a signature line of programming at the DCPA, credited with bringing immersive theatre to Colorado and helping establish Denver as a national hub for immersive art.

Among Off-Center’s large-scale productions that have garnered local and national praise are: Theater of the Mind created in collaboration with David Byrne and Mala Gaonkar, Sweet & Lucky created with NYC-based Third Rail Projects, a 360-degree staging of The Wild Party, The Last Defender live-action game, and the award-winning holiday extravaganza, Camp Christmas.
