Building Fringe

The People’s Building

It's been more than a month since the end of the 2025 Denver Fringe Festival and, though we're glad for the time to recover, we miss the community, artistry, and fun that Fringe brings every June.

That’s why we're partnering with the People's Building to offer a special gathering: Building Fringe - How to Fringe Year-Round

Join us on Monday, September 22nd @ 6PM at the People's Building (9995 E Colfax Ave, Aurora, CO 80010) to connect with other artists, to learn about how Denver Fringe can support collaboration between artists throughout the year, and how the People's Building is leading efforts to help provide artists with opportunities to share their work.

Whether you've participated in Fringe before or are hoping to learn more, whether you're a performance artist or an artist of any other kind, we'll be looking to regularly provide space and time for artists to share what they're most excited to make and to find creative partners to help bring that art to life.

Looking forward to making community and art with you!

Dance Nation

The People’s Building | Phamaly Theatre Company

Experience the explosive energy of Dance Nation, a Pulitzer Prize-nominated play about ambition, identity, and adolescence as a preteen dance team navigates growing up and chasing glory at the national finals.

In an unnamed middle American town, a dance team of preteen girls is preparing for the most important moment of their lives – the national dance final in Tampa Bay. Dive into the electrifying world of “Dance Nation,” where ambition, adolescence, and the transformative power of dance collide.

This bold and provocative Pulitzer Prize-nominated play follows a group of young dancers navigating the complexities of growing up while preparing for high-stakes competition. As they push their bodies and dreams to the limit, they grapple with identity, desire, and the fierce longing for acceptance in a world that provides them with many questions but few answers.

Advisory Notice: This production contains stylized depictions of vulgar situations that some might find uncomfortable or unnerving. Additionally, references are made that include descriptions of disordered eating, suicide, mental illness, sex, sexual assault, harassment, cancer, and death. Certain elements of blood, coarse language, and depictions of self-harm and masturbation are shown onstage. Finally, there will be various amounts of undress including full nudity in the show.

Dance Nation

The People’s Building | Phamaly Theatre Company

Experience the explosive energy of Dance Nation, a Pulitzer Prize-nominated play about ambition, identity, and adolescence as a preteen dance team navigates growing up and chasing glory at the national finals.

In an unnamed middle American town, a dance team of preteen girls is preparing for the most important moment of their lives – the national dance final in Tampa Bay. Dive into the electrifying world of “Dance Nation,” where ambition, adolescence, and the transformative power of dance collide.

This bold and provocative Pulitzer Prize-nominated play follows a group of young dancers navigating the complexities of growing up while preparing for high-stakes competition. As they push their bodies and dreams to the limit, they grapple with identity, desire, and the fierce longing for acceptance in a world that provides them with many questions but few answers.

Advisory Notice: This production contains stylized depictions of vulgar situations that some might find uncomfortable or unnerving. Additionally, references are made that include descriptions of disordered eating, suicide, mental illness, sex, sexual assault, harassment, cancer, and death. Certain elements of blood, coarse language, and depictions of self-harm and masturbation are shown onstage. Finally, there will be various amounts of undress including full nudity in the show.

The Legend of Anne Bonny

The People’s Building

The Legend of Anne Bonny | August 23 - September 6

Book & Lyrics by Emy McGuire

Music by Emy McGuire, Pluto Boll & Nathan McGuire

World premiere presented by Two Cent Lion & Shifted Lens Theatre Company | Co-produced by TWO CENT LION and SHIFTED LENS THEATRE COMPANY

Anne, an ambitious 18th century housewife, enters the realm of piracy at the beginning of its very violent end. She runs away on a wanted man’s ship, falls in love with more than her fair share of irreputable individuals, and learns that pirates who are captured are forced to betray their kind to live or cling to their legends and die.

With a sword at hip and adventure at hand, Anne seems poised to claim everything she has ever wanted, so long as she can avoid a watery grave as well as the hangman’s noose. But Anne’s captain has become the target of a vengeful pirate-turned-hunter. The world whispers around her that those beneath black flags will soon be doomed. And the quiet young man that Anne has desperately (and secretly) fallen for turns out to be no man at all.

The Legend of Anne Bonny is a tribute to dark oceanic folklore, queer women’s history, and all the seafaring heroes and sinners who, in equal parts, were damned.

Music by Emy McGuire, Pluto Boll & Nathan McGuire

World premiere presented by Two Cent Lion & Shifted Lens Theatre Company | Co-produced by TWO CENT LION and SHIFTED LENS THEATRE COMPANY

Anne, an ambitious 18th century housewife, enters the realm of piracy at the beginning of its very violent end. She runs away on a wanted man’s ship, falls in love with more than her fair share of irreputable individuals, and learns that pirates who are captured are forced to betray their kind to live or cling to their legends and die.

With a sword at hip and adventure at hand, Anne seems poised to claim everything she has ever wanted, so long as she can avoid a watery grave as well as the hangman’s noose. But Anne’s captain has become the target of a vengeful pirate-turned-hunter. The world whispers around her that those beneath black flags will soon be doomed. And the quiet young man that Anne has desperately (and secretly) fallen for turns out to be no man at all.

The Legend of Anne Bonny is a tribute to dark oceanic folklore, queer women’s history, and all the seafaring heroes and sinners who, in equal parts, were damned.
