About the headliner

Nick Hoff is a nationally touring stand-up comedian who has been on MTV, co-hosts a weekly show on SiriusXM, and was a featured act in Netflix’s Comedy Festival. His debut album “Baby Daddy” hit #1 on the iTunes comedy charts, and his new hour-long special “Front to Back” can be streamed on YouTube. When he’s not on stage, Nick can often be seen in commercials for Miller Lite, Pepsi and Amazon.

Jeff Foxworthy and Larry the Cable Guy hand-picked Nick to open for them on their critically acclaimed “We’ve Been Thinking” Tour. He has headlined the “Pink Ribbon Comedy Tour” which made stops in 40 cities doing 65 shows all raising money for breast cancer research. He was also part of the “Walk of Shame” national comedy tour, which was not quite so noble a cause.

Check out Nick live when he comes to a city near you, and listen to his weekly podcast “Hoffcast” where he trades stories with comedians, friends, and one astronaut (so far).

Celebrate the First Day of Summer in Clear Creek County!

A Politician’s Ladder, or Wrong by Wrong to Success

by George Downing

After a pandemic sized shutdown, and challenging reboot, The Silver Plume Melodrama is returning to the George Downing Playhouse. This year we reprise A politician’s Ladder, or Wrong by Wrong to Success, forty years after the original 1985 production. This is a celebration of the largest community-based, volunteer fundraising initiative for the preservation of Silver Plume’s historical structures. Over 500 volunteer hours are donated by the community to make this production come to life.  We are excited to have a Clear Creek County based cast and crew, directed by Silver Plume local, and George Downing’s protégé, Nicholas Regester. Please join us for this dinner theater and support the preservation of this unique historic community.

“It is the turn of the century in a town nestled in the foothills from whence its livelihood has come. It is not a boomtown but instead grew at a measured pace because of natural geographic factors.

Situated at the confluence of two valleys, it was the natural location for stores and services to both, and the streams from each tumbled together creating a sizeable river of spectacular beauty. Far enough from the mining and logging in one direction and the dusty trail herds in the other to avoid the dirt and grime, yet close enough to gain sustenance from all.

Though the mutterings about the shaky economics of precious metals have reached the town, most people believe the diversity of the area will pull them through. Only a few are taking steps to find-untapped resources that will guarantee a bountiful future.

These very steps create our drama. The subtle forces that guide municipal growth are not walking in unison.”

When: Saturdays 6:00 P.M. to 10:00 P.M. and Sundays 5:00 P.M. to 9:00 P.M., April 26^th – 27^th May 3^rd – 4^th, with and encore performance July 3rd

How: Tickets $50, Kids $35 (12 and under), Seniors $40 (Sunday Only). Ticket includes dinner and ice cream sundae bar.
To make reservations (pay cash or check) please call (303) 569-2023 or email events@peopleforsilverplume.org,.
