Beginning / Acting

Inheritance
by Norma Johnson

It’s 1925 and Denver is abuzz with excitement as 100,000 gather for the event of a lifetime. As preparations are made to celebrate God and country, it becomes clear that the festivities are only jubilant for the white residents of Denver. Three women’s lives intersect in a moment from which there is no return. A choice must be made – a choice that will be passed down through generations.

This new play was developed to address a critical community need: we need to look honestly at our past in order to move forward. Using theater to address social concerns and accelerate necessary conversations is at the heart of Curious Theatre Company's mission. This play will prove both historically insightful and theatrically compelling. Come explore how your art can be used to impact the world.
