Theatre 29 premieres Colorado-made video plays

‘LOOK’ shows set to stream January 15

On Jan. 15, Denver’s Theatre 29 is premiering LOOK, a collection of Colorado-made video plays designed for uncertain times.

In November 2020, playwrights and theatre artists Iliana Lucero Barron and Adelina Gonzales, Molly Bibeau and James Brunt, Tami Canaday, Melissa Lucero McCarl, Pamela Nocerino, and Matthew Schultz each began work on a short video-play on the theme of “There’s something I want to show you” using following parameters:

Each play will be recorded by an actor-as-character using a hand-held device like a phone or tablet.
Each piece will contain an implicit or explicit reason for the recording using a hand-held device.

The playwrights and theatre artists are in charge of creating and producing their respective video plays, which will debut as a collection on the Theater 29 website.

Viewing Information

LOOK is streaming January 15, 2021 at 7 p.m. at www.theater29denver.com

LOOK is free; however, viewers are invited to support the local arts community by donating to the Denver Actors Fund
