The Ellie welcomes top artists and touring shows to the Mile High City and is also where the Colorado Ballet and Opera Colorado perform their season productions each year. The Ellie is one of only three opera houses in the United States, one of nine worldwide, with seatback titling at every seat in the house. Translations are available in both English and Spanish. You can find supertitles right above the stage as well, so your eyes never have to leave the performance. The opera house is humidified and provides state-of-the-art technical support as well as acoustical excellence and clean sightlines. You don’t need to stress about a language barrier, as every seat at the Ellie Caulkins Opera House has a personal subtitling system.
The Ellie is a world-class acoustical hall designed in the lyric style with four levels: balcony, loge, mezzanine and orchestra. With a rich and eventful history since opening in 1908, the Ellie has been renovated many times and most notably in the early 2000s when everything but its historic shell was rebuilt into a lyric opera house. Through seat tax revenues and bond proceeds, private donations and a generous gift from the Caulkins family, the venue reopened in 2005 as the Ellie Caulkins Opera House, honoring Denver's First Lady of Opera, Ellie Caulkins. The Ellie Caulkins Opera House, known simply as “the Ellie,” is the premier venue inside of the historic Quigg Newton Denver Municipal Auditorium.
