Who We Are

“Theatre as a catalyst for a better world.”

BETC (we go by "Betsy" in honor of our founders' first theatre teacher) has produced well-crafted, compelling theatre in service to the Colorado cultural community for 20 years. We now deliver Denver performances in addition to our longstanding tradition of shows in Boulder, and we view each show as a collaboration meant to cultivate connection, turn over mental soil, and welcome people from all walks of life to imagine, create, laugh, cry, and dive into powerful stories powerfully told.

Mission

Boulder Ensemble Theatre Company (BETC) creates powerful, engaging, top-quality performances and programs, with meaningful impacts beyond the stage. We serve and welcome Colorado’s many diverse communities, cultivating an inclusive environment for artists and audiences. We are united by creativity, connectivity, and compassion.

The team at BETC includes staff, an artistic ensemble, and a board of directors. Ensemble members are professional, experienced local actors, directors, designers, and technicians; their voices help to shape the direction and vision of BETC’s artistic work. Staff, ensemble, and board members alike represent BETC within the larger metropolitan community, and are advocates for our mission, vision, and values.
