“Alegria”, which means “jubilation” in Spanish, focuses on the theme of power and its evolution across time. Fun for all ages, “Alegria” features kings’ fools, minstrels, beggars, old aristocrats, children and clowns to delight the whole family. The Cirque du Soleil production is holding just eight engagements at the FirstBank Center in Broomfield .

CASA (Court Appointed Special Advocates) of Adams and Broomfield Counties is a 501 (c)(3) non-profit organization that trains, supports and supervises community volunteers who advocate for the best interests of innocent child victims of abuse and neglect. Each year, in Adams and Broomfield Counties, there are over 1,300 children who have been physically, sexually or emotionally abused or neglected, and who are in desperate need of a caring, committed CASA Volunteer to speak up for their best interests.
