Avenue Theater, Downtown theater in Denver, United States.
The Avenue Theater is a small theater in Denver, Colorado, offering live performances in an indoor venue with a dedicated stage and seating area. The building has architectural details typical of early 20th-century construction and is equipped for modern productions.
The theater was founded in 1985 by Robert Wells at East 17th and Vine Street before moving to its current location. After a period of closure, it reopened in 2001 and has been active since.
The Avenue Theater is known for Radio Avenue, a monthly live comedy show recorded on stage and broadcast on KGNU radio. Attending a show here means being part of a live radio audience at the same time.
The theater is easy to reach on foot from nearby public transit stops, and parking is available in the surrounding area. Checking the event calendar ahead of your visit helps, as the program changes from month to month.
The Avenue Theater is one of the few venues in Denver that produces its own regular radio program broadcast live from the stage. This direct link between live performance and local radio is rare for a theater of its size.
