I know. It seems like we have been in lockdown forever. And even worse, it sometimes feels like we’ll never get out of it. I want to stress that right now, it is so important to socially distance and stay safe. But, one day these dark times will be memory, and on that day, these are a few things I’ve missed that I’m going to do ASAP:
1) Red Rocks Amphitheater
I have still never been able to see a like show at Red Rocks, a very well-known outdoor venue for live concerts and shows amidst the red clay rock of the mountain. Once it opens back up you’ll see me there!
2) Denver Performing Arts Center
As a performer, I’ve missed being able to dress up, sit in a theater, and watch the shows I hope to be in one day. Some shows scheduled in the 2021 season that I’m dying to see include My Fair Lady, Hamilton, Hadestown, Dear Evan Hansen, and so many more (it is a fantastic line-up!) Be sure to pre-order spots for some of your favorites!
3) The Church
The Church is a club, built into a church. (The irony!) Different dance floors (on different levels of the building) have different DJs playing different genres of music. Whether you’re the one who’ll be dancing (or in my case more like thrashing) all night, or the one who’ll just happily pick a floor and listen with a drink at the bar, The Church is a unique clubbing experience. So once it’s safe, grab a group of friends and spice up your weekend to celebrate that you made it through this pandemic!
I’m someone who never wants my knowledge of how people make their way through the world to stagnate. So I’ll keep studying psychology, philosophy, writing, and music, as my outlets to understand them better, and hopefully travel to get my chance to meet them. Then maybe, we might get to change just a little bit of each other’s lives.
