SUMMARY:Changemaker Speaker Series: Deanne Fitzmaurice A250 Portrait of a Nation
DESCRIPTION:Part of the Wheeler’s ongoing Changemaker Speaker Series\, A250 Portrait of a Nation features Pulitzer Prize–winning photographer Deanne Fitzmaurice in an illustrated talk marking America’s 250th anniversary and Colorado’s 150th. Offered free to the public with advance RSVP required\, the program reflects a shared commitment to access\, civic dialogue\, and storytelling that sparks reflection and connection. \nDrawing from nearly forty years as a photojournalist—including her tenure at the San Francisco Chronicle and assignments for National Geographic\, Sports Illustrated\, and ESPN—Fitzmaurice revisits defining chapters of recent American history. Her work spans the AIDS crisis\, the Loma Prieta earthquake\, marriage‑equality rulings\, climate events\, and cultural touchstones from professional sports to Route 66. \nCentral to the presentation is her Pulitzer Prize–winning photographic essay chronicling the recovery of a wounded Iraqi boy\, anchoring a broader meditation on resilience\, humanity\, and the role of visual journalism in shaping national memory. As part of the Changemaker Speaker Series\, A250 Portrait of a Nation highlights the power of storytelling to deepen understanding during moments of historic significance. \nThis is a free\, but ticketed\, community event; advance RSVP is encouraged to secure reservations.

SUMMARY:Proactive & Prepared: Wildfire in the Roaring Fork Valley
DESCRIPTION:Wheeler Opera House is pleased to partner with the Wildfire Collaborative Roaring Fork Valley\, Aspen Public Radio and ACES on an event designed to increase awareness and preparedness as wildfire season approaches. \nColorado is experiencing its warmest year in 131 years of record\, and one of its driest. The Roaring Fork Valley sits at the epicenter\, among the hardest-hit areas in the state for severe drought. With snowpack now peaked at historic lows\, climate scientists are drawing comparisons to years that defined what catastrophic wildfire looks like in Colorado. This spring\, wildfire risk across our valley is as serious as it has ever been. \nOn Thursday June 4\, the Wheeler is partnering with the Wildfire Collaborative Roaring Fork Valley\, Aspen Public Radio\, and ACES to bring our community together for a direct conversation about what these conditions mean for our valley\, what local fire departments and researchers are doing about it\, and what each of us can do to protect our homes and our neighbors. \nWe’ll start the presentation at 6pm sharp\, with opportunities for attendees to connect to presenters and panelists in the lobby both before and after the event. \nIf you’ve been wondering where things actually stand\, this is the event to attend. \nUtilizing Wildfire Collaborative Roaring Fork Valley’s boots-on-the-ground expertise\, Aspen Public Radio’s journalistic prowess\, and ACES’ decades of environmental experience\, an informative evening will review this season’s wildfire outlook\, new predictive technologies and resilience increasing efforts in our region. \nThe evening is organized around three questions:\nWhat are we facing this season?\nWhat is being done about it?\nWhat happens when fire comes? \nDrawing on the Wildfire Collaborative Roaring Fork Valley’s work in fire behavior modeling and fuels mitigation\, Aspen Public Radio’s deep ties to this community\, and ACES knowledge of historic environmental science\, the program brings together the people best positioned to answer those questions — climate scientists\, local fire chiefs\, researchers\, and emergency response leaders — in one room\, for one conversation.

SUMMARY:Flying Karamazov Brothers
DESCRIPTION:Celebrating 137 years since the Wheeler’s opening day in 1889! \nThe Flying Karamazov Brothers have been defying gravity and expectations for over fifty years with their signature blend of juggling\, theater\, and irreverent humor. Founded in 1973 by Howard Patterson and Paul Magid—college roommates at UC Santa Cruz—the troupe quickly grew to include Randy Nelson\, Timothy Furst\, and a rotating cast of wildly talented performers. \nNamed after Dostoyevsky’s The Brothers Karamazov\, the group adopted stage personas from the novel and launched a legacy that spans Broadway\, television\, and international acclaim. Their groundbreaking production of The Comedy of Errors and the Obie-winning Juggling and Cheap Theatrics helped cement their reputation as masters of physical comedy and theatrical innovation.\nToday\, the Karamazovs continue to evolve\, with current members including Mark Ettinger\, Rod Kimball\, Stephen Bent\, and Nick Flint. Their performances are a joyful collision of skill\, wit\, and absurdity—where objects fly\, jokes land\, and audiences leave grinning. \n“As close to a sure thing as can be found onstage\, 100 minutes of cleverness and comedy that go by in a flash.” — The New York Times \n“Extraordinary entertainment! Don’t walk\, don’t run\, FLY to see the amazing Karamazovs!” — NY1 \n“Humor\, wit and impeccable timing! The Karamazovs manage to generate more drama\, excitement and pleasure than found in a lot of the stuff that passes for entertainment nowadays.” — USA Today \n“A marvelous mix of the Marx Brothers\, Monty Python and ‘Hellzapoppin’… A unique entertainment! You have to be there and you should be there as soon as possible. Catch it!”— Clive Barnes\, New York Post
