The national tour of the Broadway musical, Kimberly Akimbo began its tour at the Buell Theatre on September 22nd, and will be playing in theaters across America for the next year. The show kicked off the Denver Center for the Performing Arts 2024-2025 Broadway Season, bringing the best of Broadway to the Mile High City. Kimberly Akimbo won the 2023 Tony Award for the Best New Musical, a prestigious title that helped it stay popular and relevant, until it closed in April this year. Prior to the performance I saw, I had not listened to any of the cast albums or read any specific plot details. I only knew it was about a teenager with progeria. The performance I attended had the full principal cast.

Haunted houses across the world vary in design, visuals, execution, and levels of scariness. Although, there are some far more intricate than they initially seem. Known as the “scariest haunted house in America” is the notorious McKamey Manor. It has gained national recognition for its over-the-top model of a haunted house. Commonly referred to as a “torture chamber” due to the disturbing scenery and physical interactions, the Mckamey Manor offers a $20,000 cash prize for any attendee that completes the full attraction. This mission has yet to be accomplished.

With its intimidating size and neon sign in the shape of a magnifying glass, Adams Mystery Playhouse sits above the chaos of the street and creates an air of mystery and magic. Adams Mystery Playhouse is Denver's longest running interactive comedy murder mystery dinner show, and Denver’s only full-time comedy murder mystery dinner theater. At the Playhouse, guests help solve humorous murder mysteries over a formal dinner, at a mansion that was once used as a mortuary.

Horror movies are an essential part of enjoying the Spooky Season. As a self-proclaimed Spooky Season enthusiast, I have amassed a collection of favorite freaky films and Halloween features. A common trend in a lot of my favorite scary movies is the consistent casting and return of pop culture royalty. Many Halloween films and horror movies rely on the same actresses to portray victims of scary stories and sinister situations. These films often feature this actress as the heroine of the story, mainly because she survives until the end. While their valiant finish is notable, these lead actresses have gained a reputation for their infamous and iconic vocals. These women are the Scream Queens.
