David Byrne's Theater of the Mind Extends at Denver Center for the Performing Arts

The Denver Center for the Performing Arts (DCPA) Off-Center has announced that Theater of the Mind — co-created by Oscar-, Grammy-, and Tony Award-winning artist David Byrne and writer Mala Gaonkar — will extend through January 22, 2023.

Theater of the Mind takes place in a 15,000-square-foot historic warehouse within the adaptive reuse campus of York Street Yards in Denver's Clayton neighborhood. The production takes audience members through an immersive journey of self-reflection, discovery, and imagination, inspired by, and grounded in neuroscience. Audiences explore how they perceive the world through sensory experiments that reveal the inner mysteries of the brain. Andrew Scoville directs.

Off-Center produces unexpected theatrical experiences that put the audience at the center of the story. Past Off-Center productions include Sweet & Lucky, created with New York-based Third Rail Projects; Camp Christmas with artist Lonnie Hanzon; The Last Defender with The House Theatre of Chicago; Perception, featuring live music by Tom Hagerman of DeVotchKa; and a 360-degree staging of The Wild Party.
