To Wong Foo, Thanks for Everything, Julie Newmar
"Larger than life is just the right size!" -- Noxeema Jackson
Rainbow Cult and the Historic Elitch Theatre invite you to the inaugural year of Pride Day at the Historic Elitch Theatre. This year's theme is The Red & Wild Festival because we'll be showing To Wong Foo, Thanks For Everything, Julie Newmar!
(In 1968 Julie Newmar performed at the Historic Elitch Theatre!)
Join us for a day filled with celebration, community, and fun at the iconic Historic Elitch Theatre -- Denver's oldest cultural venue.
Get ready to experience a vibrant showcase of performances, music, arts, and more. Come dressed in your boldest red and wildest attire to show off your pride and support for the LGBTQ+ community. This event promises to be a colorful and unforgettable experience. Don't miss out on this opportunity to come together and celebrate love, community, and diversity!
The Festival is free, but the evening entertainment inside the theatre is a ticketed event. Tickets are $20 ($15 for the Pre-Film show and after-party, $4 for the film, and $1 donation to a local LGBTQ+ charity.)
IMPORTANT NOTE: The event is NOT at Elitch Gardens amusement park -- it is at the original location of Elitch Gardens in the Highlands at West 38th Avenue and Tennyson. The Historic Elitch Theatre is at the original 1890s location of the gardens.
