NIGHTMARE: A Burlesque and Aerial Remix at Clocktower Cabaret

The Nightmare Before Christmas has spent thirty years as the movie that belongs to both holidays, and Selena Bone'Em Harder built a show that exploits exactly that: an aerial and burlesque remix staged once in October and again in December, with Jack, Sally, Oogie, and Zero carried across both runs.

Bone'Em Harder is a Clocktower regular who hosts the venue's monthly Off The Clock late night and headlines her own September date in the same room, so the aerial rigging and the cast are house talent rather than a touring package. The October dates are the Halloween-season half of the run.

Changing Landscapes: Inside Venice, Mesa Verde and Rapa Nui at the Denver Museum of Nature & Science

Jun 12 - Jan 3 · Denver Museum of Nature & Science

Marked 18-and-over by the venue. Three nights in October, October 16 through 18, then back December 4, 11, 12, and 13 for the Christmas half. The room is the basement cabaret at 1601 Arapahoe Street, and aerial work means the sightlines from the front tables are worth the tier price.
