Anything they offer at Wheeler is awesome. All seats are excellent. Don't wait to buy tickets as they sell out often. They have a bar open before the show too

I love this wonderful small theater and programs. I buy tickets for at least one event each trip. I've seen many famous and local musicians in shows and attended some benefits and free movies.

This place is awesome if you catch a good show. They may be few and far between but it is a great experience for locals and visitors alike

We always check out this venue and it never fails. This year we saw some wonderful traditional jazz and a great documentary at good prices and it is really worth seeing the boom era architecture

It's nice to see places like this still exist. I hope the renovation of the balcony will keep the historic charm of this theatre. Do drop in and take a look if you have a spare 15 minutes.

The best place to go for stylish and fun evening entertainment in Aspen. Nice shows, in particular the Aspen Christmas Spectacular was just spectacular. Nice historic atmosphere, casual yet stylish. A 'must' during your visit to Aspen!

We went and saw a documentary while we were here. It was an amazing theatre! Very old fashioned style! The service was very good, we got to drink while watching, very cool!
