Creede, Colorado Is Elevating Art To New Heights In A Stunning Renaissance

Speaking of Travel® With Marilyn Ball

On this episode of Speaking of Travel, we’re heading high into Colorado’s San Juan Mountains to uncover the charm and magic of Creede, a tiny town with a mighty story.

Once a booming silver mining camp, Creede has transformed into a cultural haven where creativity and adventure collide. At the center of it all is the Creede Repertory Theatre, a nationally renowned professional company that’s been telling powerful stories at 9,000 feet for 60 seasons.

From its humble beginnings to a vibrant repertory schedule that draws talent and audiences from across the country, the theatre is the heartbeat of this mountain community.

I’m joined by Kate Berry, Director of Marketing & Communications, and Emily Van Fleet, Artistic Director, to talk about Creede Rep’s origin story, its evolution, and how the arts continue to shape the town’s identity.

Creede offers a rare kind of magic that stays with you. Fill your days fly fishing, rafting or hiking and spend your nights immersed in compelling performances. There's something for everyone.

Creede is calling. Go there. See a show. Breathe the mountain air. Don't miss all Creede has to offer. You won’t forget it.
