Event description

In the final scene of Ibsen’s 1879 groundbreaking masterwork, Nora Helmer makes the shocking decision to leave her husband and children and begin a life independently. This climactic event—when Nora slams the door on everything in her life—instantly propelled world drama into the modern age. In A Doll's House Part 2, many years have passed since Nora’s exit. Now, there’s a knock on that same door. Nora has returned. But why? And what will it mean for those she left behind? Join us for Denver Theatre Ensemble's first show, A Doll's House Part 2, in our 2025 season this July!

Denver Theatre Ensemble is a 501-c3 nonprofit theatre company located in Denver, Colorado. We are currently fundraising for our very first season, which will take place in the Fall of 2024. All donations will go towards compensation for our artists, and help fund our design elements (costumes, scenery, lighting, and sound) for the upcoming season. For more information about our company, please see below.

Denver Theatre Ensemble was founded with one goal in mind: to create high-quality theatre that centers and prioritizes the art. Founders Rhianna DeVries, Tess Neel, and Ina Marlowe are dedicated to cultivating a professional artistic space that is devoted to reinventing tradition in theatre; by prioritizing the exploration of deeply human stories (regardless of when they were written), and challenging the social structures that continue to limit theatre as a practice, Denver Theatre Ensemble will break the mold.

In our short history, before and after achieving not-for-profit status, we have produced a World Premiere, a Denver Premiere, and dozens of opportunities for actors, directors, and designers to work with meaningful classical stories, as well as collaborate with contemporary playwrights. We will continue to create an artistic space that sheds new light on one of the most human ways we connect with one another: storytelling. Through inquisitive, innovative, thoughtful theatre-making, we will build a vessel through which everyone involved can more deeply realize what it means to be human.

Denver Theatre Ensemble originally grew out of “Dream Scenes,” a scene-study class led by Ina Marlowe and Rhianna DeVries. The participating actors were hungry to accomplish good work, and we wanted to provide a platform for that work to be supported and showcased within our community. Denver Theatre Ensemble provides opportunities for artists to delve into great literature in a nurturing and professional environment.

Our Mission & Vision:

Denver Theatre Ensemble will reinvent tradition by creating a professional theatrical space that redefines the limits of the artistic process, reimagines classical and contemporary works through a modern lens, and represents our diverse world both on and off stage; through this work, Denver Theatre Ensemble will be a hub through which to realize our collective humanity.

Art is an ancient process that flows through our consciousness. It is idea, concept, and intention. We know that the artifact, the result, the physical representation is not, in itself, the art. We know that art is the meaning –what you feel, what you think, what you perceive, and how you react is the art. And, most importantly, we know that there is no art without the artist.
