'Under the Colorado Moon'
Presented by The City of Cripple Creek's the Butte Theater at The Butte Theater Cripple Creek, CO
Last seen on the Butte stage in 2021, “Under the Colorado Moon” tells the story of gentleman Brett Armstrong. In financial distress after a lost wager and falsely accused of forgery, Brett must fake his own death and flee for a new life in the rough and tumble mountain town of Cripple Creek, CO. He assumes a new identity and joins a team of hard rock miners who toil under the thumb of Roy Shatterly, a man as cruel as he is rich. All is well until Armstrong falls for a beautiful and spirited mule skinner who has also caught Shatterly’s eye. Now, Armstrong must either deny his love or risk his freedom...and quite possibly his life!

From eerie Victorian-era stories to spine-tingling paranormal sightings, every stop reveals another layer of Manitou’s haunted past. You may feel a cold breath at your shoulder… hear footsteps where no one walks… or catch a glimpse of something watching from the darkness. Perfect for believers, skeptics, thrill-seekers, and curious wanderers alike, this spirited adventure blends history, mystery, humor, and just the right amount of fear into an unforgettable evening beneath the shadow of the Rockies. Come walk with the spirits… if you dare.
