“The DCPA and its civic and cultural impact as the crown jewel of the preforming arts in Colorado has been an integral and inspiring part of my entire life. As my mother and long-time DCPA trustee Judi Wolf so eloquently said, ‘DCPA founder and our good friend, Donald Seawell, had a vision, which was to create a theatre for the community — where dreams were realized and imaginations soared’. It is my honor and passion to be entrusted as a Trustee to protect and preserve this treasure for future generations while honoring the legacy of those visionaries and dreamers who helped create and support our beloved DCPA.”
