The Theater of Dreams in Castle Rock is seriously one of the best entertainment values for your…read moremoney. Live theater is not only a dying art, but live magic is something that most people will go their whole lives without seeing. I might a bit biased as I am a magician, but Joe and Carol do this thing right. Not only are they great and friendly people, they are terrific performers and magicians. I attended for a friends work party, and they let them have drinks and food before the show. Joe and carol did a nice mix of close-up and parlour magic, with some mentalism mixed in. It was a small group and they handled it very well. I don't think anyone really knew what to expect but by the end they were all very impressed. They also do lectures for magicians and bring in some of the biggest names in magic to not only do lecture but perform. If you live in Castle Rock, make sure and get a ticket to a show at least once. You will probably end up coming back for more and you will not regret it. Anyone these guys bring in will be worth watching. Thanks again Joe and Carol for the excellent conversation and performance!

The Grand Entry Hall is a soaring lobby that can accomodate private events and is the main display space for art shows. There is also an Event Hall that opens to the outdoor Terrace Theater. Concessions available are beer, wine, cocktails, soft drinks, and snacks. The facility is really quite spectacular. I recently visited to view the Roland Bernier retrospective which included a substantial selection of his work from the 1980s/1990s. The expansive lobby provided an excellent setting for his large-scale works. Additional art display space is available in the long hallway that leads from the lobby to the administration offices. The Arts Center has a busy schedule of theatrical and musical events that are presented in the Main Stage and Terrace theaters. There is also a regular schedule of art exhibits. This is a well-designed complex that offers many reasons to visit for those with an interest in many areas of the arts.

I've frequented the Lone Tree Arts Center many times for various shows and events and can say that I'm a FAN! Music on the outdoor Terrace? YES PLEASE! Community theater shows featuring local actors and actresses? VERY COOL! Seasonal plays, musicals and Christmas shows? YOU MUST GO! Events hosted by the Alzheimer's Association for families and loved ones? THE COOLEST! SO much opportunity! The website highlights the various shows, events and happenings at the Arts Center and each one is carefully curated, offered to everyone and at a low cost. The theater itself is huge, well maintained and offers levels of seating - perfect at any view. Staff is beyond friendly, welcoming and smiley each and every time! I actively look for events at this Arts Center and find myself truly enjoying each experience! Definitely worth a shot :)

The complex includes the Mainstage Theater, an intimate proscenium stage with 534 seats, a spacious art gallery plus extensive wall space for art display in the theater lobby, a 3,000 square foot event room, and the beautiful west terrace which has access to both the theater lobby and the event room. The classroom wing includes a dance studio, two creative studios, and two discovery labs. Parker Arts runs an extensive program of theatrical performances, art shows, and classes. All parts of the complex are available for rental for events from weddings to business conferences. There is a large parking lot in front of the building and a parking ramp is under construction (May 2025) just to the east.

Unfortunately there are not many dance schools in Castle Rock but I would not recommend Castle Rock…read moreDance Academy to anyone who wants a fair, supportive, and professional dance environment. My children experienced blatant favoritism, where the same students were constantly given opportunities while others were overlooked, no matter how hard they worked. The class leveling is a complete mess, students with vastly different skill levels are lumped together, making it impossible for anyone to truly progress. When their regular instructor is unavailable, the kids are often taught by high school students who are given too much power in this school. While these students are lovely, it feels more like I'm paying for babysitting rather than a real dance education. I believe this is closely tied to the owner's lack of maturity, which affects their ability to run a business and hire qualified dance instructors. The instructors rarely provide meaningful feedback to help students improve, leaving them to guess what they need to work on. The "highest ranking" ballet teacher who is also good friends with the owner, is extremely condescending and rude to anyone who isn't one of their favorites. More so, the teachers are immature and not properly trained, and openly discuss students with other students, which is completely unprofessional and damaging to young dancers' confidence. The schedule is never provided in a timely manner and constantly fluctuates, leaving parents at the mercy of the school's availability rather than allowing for proper planning. We were constantly told the schedule is coming out on X date, registration is coming on X date and this rarely happens and is usually delayed weeks. If you truly want your child to learn proper dance technique, and grow as a dancer, look elsewhere--this school is more about instagram than an actual dance education.

The same person would get favorited by getting special parts multiple times in a row and getting most of the attention. My daughter has lost ALOT of passion for dance and doesn't want to go her anymore.And they're not trying to hide it. The studio owner best friend will be rude and inconsiderate when the student is not her favorite. The leveling is all wrong, they put girls that can do AMAZING things and others that are not as excelled as others. They are not understanding of your home life. They make you sit out in class when you don't meet their behavior expectations when your the one paying them. My daughter came home crying or would dread going to dance. Certain Teachers make the class a competition. The teachers also talk about particular students right in front of them and make them feel bad and that they are not good enough. Instructors provide mean feedback. More so, the teachers are immature and not properly trained,and openly discuss students with other teachers in public which is damaging to a young dancers confidence and passion for dance. They also focus more about instagram than the dance education. DO NOT SEND YOUR KID HERE!.
