Red

Vintage Theatre
1468 Dayton Street Aurora

Set in the 1950s, and based on real events, Red takes a compelling look at world-famous abstract artist Mark Rothko at the pinnacle of his creative powers. As he struggles with creating a series of large paintings for a commission, Rothko gets a brand-new assistant and the thin line between teacher and student begins to blur. See this this taut, visceral play by John Logan at Denver's Vintage Theatre.
