THE FARNDALE AVENUE HOUSING ESTATE TOWNSWOMEN'S GUILD DRAMATIC SOCIETY'S PRODUCTION OF "A CHRISTMAS CAROL"
The Aurora Fox Arts Center
In a festive mood, the ladies of the Farndale Avenue Housing Estate Townswomen’s Guild Dramatic Society mount another assault on the classics with their stage version of “A Christmas Carol.” They enthusiastically portray a dizzy array of characters from the Dickensian favorite (and a few which aren’t), engineer some novel audience participation while bravely contending with an intrusive PA system, and -- a real Farndale first -- wrap their vocal cords and feet around two original, show-stopping songs.
The Fox will welcome some of the true “grandes dames” of the Colorado theatre community to the stage for this hilarious, nonstop journey into a holiday show gone utterly and madly wrong.

Waiting for Godot
The Aurora Fox Arts Center
Waiting for Godot
by Samuel Beckett
Directed by Richard R. Cowden
Friday, January 30- Sunday, February 22, 2026 | Mainstage Theater
Two wandering tramps, Vladimir and Estragon, wait by a lonely tree, to meet up with Mr. Godot, an enigmatic figure in a world where time, place and memory are blurred and meaning is where you find it. The tramps hope that Godot will change their lives for the better. Instead, two eccentric travelers arrive, one man on the end of the other's rope. Hilarious, heartbreaking, and ultimately deeply moving, WAITING FOR GODOT stands as one of the great achievements in the Western canon of dramatic literature—brought to life in a bold new production by Fox Artistic Director Richard R. Cowden.
RECOMMENDED FOR: 14+
WARNINGS: Cartoonish violence, coarse language
Waiting for Godot is presented by arrangement with Concord Theatricals on behalf of Samuel French, Inc. www.concordtheatricals.com

Manny., the Hard Nevers & mlady presented by Bring Your Sib
Manos Sagrados
Southern Colorado band The Hardly Nevers capture the daydreams of 90s latchkey kids with a pop-grunge sensibility, turning sticky-floor diary entries into swelling basement sounds.
Fronted by Chela Lujan’s syrupy sweet vocals and electric guitar, the band is driven by Charlie Hayden’s melodic bass riffs and Tim Kelley’s breaking-heart beats. Their newest addition, Inaiah Lujan, tops it all off with big second guitar energy.
The Hardly Nevers are a wave. They pull you out, spit you back, and keep you hooked.

Join us on Monday, December 8th @ 6PM at the People's Building (9995 E Colfax Ave, Aurora, CO 80010) to connect to learn about the local immersive art community and hear from two fantastic and creatively generous local organizations: Immersive Denver and OddKnock Productions, who will share their insights on doing immersive work and opportunities to participate.
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.
THE FARNDALE AVENUE HOUSING ESTATE TOWNSWOMEN'S GUILD DRAMATIC SOCIETY'S PRODUCTION OF "A CHRISTMAS CAROL"
The Aurora Fox Arts Center
In a festive mood, the ladies of the Farndale Avenue Housing Estate Townswomen’s Guild Dramatic Society mount another assault on the classics with their stage version of “A Christmas Carol.” They enthusiastically portray a dizzy array of characters from the Dickensian favorite (and a few which aren’t), engineer some novel audience participation while bravely contending with an intrusive PA system, and -- a real Farndale first -- wrap their vocal cords and feet around two original, show-stopping songs.
The Fox will welcome some of the true “grandes dames” of the Colorado theatre community to the stage for this hilarious, nonstop journey into a holiday show gone utterly and madly wrong.
Content Advisory: Suitable for all ages.
