I went to see a show for Denver dance festival. The performance was cancelled "healing". Few days before the show I received email from someone telling me that my barcode is not going to work and that there would be a thiket waiting for me at the door. That I would be reimbursed, and apologies for the inconveniences.
At the door of the theater was an Asian lady, white almost hair, short with glasses. Her tag said volunteer. She was extremely rude nasty and humiliated me and made me feel not welcome, not at the right place and just discriminate and hated.. I waited my torn to address the matter with the thiket. She interrupted me saying:" the show was cancelled because one of the dancers is sick!" I turned on side and show her the note on the side of her advertising the show I had thiket for. She said. No I can't help you! I must help other people!!!! She turned out like I don't exist and continue scanning other people. She ignored me for some time. Then I try to Scan my thiket which didn't work. Rudely she addressed me to go to the thiket box. She was rude and none welcoming.. It give me that feeling that I am in a mental health facility with hostile and hateful people. Just very discriminatory and not friendly.
On the thiket box I was provided thiket. I scanned it and entered. The show was very good. But it just give me that feeling of being abused, neglected, ignored and humiliated.
It's just not okay to be mistreated, or disrespected in a place like that.
I don't not wish that...

Read moreSaw the 6:30 pm voices rock anniversary concert at Newman center PAC at DU.
Great show- hundreds of enthusiastic singers , very well run production and great energy.
Venue is beautiful- spacious, bright, ample restrooms, nice usher staff. $12 for parking seems steep. The covered walk way from 2nd level parking to lobby is very poorly lighted.
I have a professional background in live sound engineering. Doing live choir especially with a band and especially with young voices can make for an extremely challenging gig.
Overall sound was good. Mixer did a very good job handling the many cues, mic movements, etc. The mixing/ balancing of the band and between band / soloists/ choir.l was very good.
There was also ample room for improvement. There were many times when the choir needed more of a lift to be louder. I would quibble with the choice and placement of area/ choir mics that could have assisted with this.
Love the voices rock and will always go to their shows.
Newman center is wonderful but has a few things they...
