In the summer of 2002, Smokey Joe’s café took the Show Palace by storm with its idealized 50’s setting and top-notch singing and dancing. Featuring nearly 40 of the greatest songs ever recorded, Smokey Joe’s Café is a toe-tapping feel-good show for all audiences. Songs include: Hound Dog, On Broadway, Jailhouse Rock, Poison Ivy, Saved andthe rousing Stand by Me.

Molly Brown
THE UNSINKABLE MOLLY BROWN

Music and Lyrics by Meredith Willson
Book by Richard Morris
October 3rd – November 22nd, 2008

This spirited tale of a legendary, real-life American original follows the exploits of Molly Brown, whose feisty determination to rise above her impoverished beginnings leads her from the backwoods of Hannibal, Missouri, to the palaces of Europe. Along the way, she marries a lucky prospector, enters the highest echelons of Monte Carlo society, survives the sinking of the Titanic and, most importantly, earns the approval she so desperately seeks of those “Beautiful People of Denver.” Funny, light, uplifting and uniquely American, The Unsinkable Molly Brown is a classic show for the whole family to enjoy!
