One of the longest-running Off-Broadway shows of all time, this Tony-nominated, affectionate spoof of 1950s sci-fi movies has become a house-hold name, thanks to a highly successful film version and a score by the songwriting team of Howard Ashman and Alan Menken (The Little Mermaid). Named "Best Colorado Theatre West of Denver" by the Colorado Theatre Guild and "One of Colorado's Top Ten Theatres Outside Denver" by the Denver Post, the Lake Dillon Theatre brings you a high-quality, high-energy, high-altitude musical performance you won't want to miss.
