Cleo Parker Robinson Dance is a true community gem. I’ve attended both a performance and a West African dance class here, and the experience was incredible each time. The atmosphere is filled with laughter, energy, and genuine fun. It’s wonderful to see how this center brings together such a beautiful and diverse group of people. My spouse and I absolutely love the offerings and the welcoming spirit here—highly recommended!
View on Google ↗We went to see The Jury Experience in Denver and absolutely loved it. The whole concept was really unique and interactive. Instead of just sitting and watching a show, the audience actually gets to participate and think through the case like real jurors. The actors were excellent and the story kept us engaged the entire time. It was interesting hearing everyone around us discussing the evidence and deciding what they thought the verdict should be. It really makes you think about how complicated real trials can be. The production was well done and the experience felt immersive without being overwhelming. It’s definitely something different from the usual night out. If you enjoy true crime, courtroom dramas, or interactive experiences, this is a really fun event. We would absolutely recommend it and would go again if they bring a new case.
View on Google ↗This is such a special place that Ms. Cleo and her wonderful team have created. I took dance classes here when I was a teenager in the early 90s, and both my boys and my daughter have enjoyed their children's recreational dance classes over the past 15 years. My daughter is now engaging with some of their higher level programming like dance intensives. We are so fortunate to have this amazing organization to serve as the heart of dance here in Denver.
View on Google ↗Great night out event. More of a theater experience than a "Jury Experience", but still very entertaining. The concessions need to up their game. We arrived just before the event started and they were already out of water.
View on Google ↗My wife and I went to The Jury Experience, and it was honestly one of the coolest things we’ve done. It felt real, not staged. It gave us a hands-on look at something we actually deal with in everyday life. Being part of the process, hearing both sides, and making decisions like a real juror made it way more engaging than expected. We can’t wait to go to another one.
