A look back on all the winners, plus our Top 10 Colorado Headliners and a visit with the Band of Toughs

In this episode of the OnStage Colorado Podcast, Toni Tresca and I take a deep, deep dive into this year’s Colorado Theatre Guild Henry Awards. The ceremony announcing all the winners was Monday night at Lone Tree Arts Center, and it was a true celebration of the Colorado theatre community and a well-organized event that clocked in at a little over two hours.

Check out the whole list of winners and nominees here.

Also in this episode, I caught up with Colleen and Janet Mylott with Band of Toughs. This is an immersive theatre company that’s done a number of interesting productions in the past, and they return this week after a three-year hiatus with Gin & Gothic: A Brontë Rock Tale taking place at the Ellie Caulkins Opera House at the Denver Center.
