Buy Tickets at the Dairy
Tickets can be purchased online, by calling 303.444.7328, or in person at the Dairy Arts Center box office at each performance or during regular box office hours. Seats are not reserved; first come first served. Arrive early to get the best selection. Doors open a half hour before show time.
Name-Your-Price Nights
Since 1990, each Thursday performance has been “Name-Your-Price” Night. We realize that even our low regular admission price can be a stretch for some and we don’t want that to be a barrier to experiencing these great plays. Instead of a ticket, you’ll be given a plain envelope when you enter. After the show is over, drop your envelope in the collection box, paying as much or as little as you like.
Seats are available on a first come, first served basis. No reservations are needed – just show up at the theater.
Buy Season Tickets
Season tickets are a great value—up to 30% off individual ticket prices! To purchase season tickets online, simply use our Season Tickets page. Select your quantity and then hit “Pay Now”. You will be redirected to The Upstart Crow’s PayPal payment gateway to complete your purchase.
Harassment & Discrimination Policy Statement
In order to promote a respectful and productive work environment, harassment of any kind is not acceptable at The Upstart Crow (TUC). TUC also prohibits harassment and discrimination based upon an individual’s age, color, disability, gender, gender expression, gender identity, genetic information, national origin, race, religion, sex, sexual orientation, or veteran status.
Harassment occurs when unwelcome verbal or physical conduct, because of its severity and/or persistence, interferes significantly with an individual’s work or safety, or adversely affects performance conditions. Harassment also occurs when a person uses a position of authority to engage in unwelcome sexual advances, requests for sexual favors, or other verbal or physical conduct of a sexual nature.
