A longtime professional doer of internet things, Landon has been the executive producer of the streaming properties at Denver7 since April of 2019, after several years in Dallas.

For the first time since before Elitch Gardens moved to its current downtown home, the Historic Elitch Theatre on the original park grounds will host live theater performances on its stage later this year.

Both live shows are scheduled for 7 p.m. Tickets cost $15, with the proceeds – after paying the actors – going to the theater and the preservation effort. Go here for the theatre's events list and for ticket information. Turning back the clock The Elitch Theatre was built in 1891 on the original grounds of the Elitch Zoological Gardens near what is now 38th and Tennyson in northwest Denver.

The theatre hosted summer stock theater for nearly 90 years, boasting alumni like Douglas Fairbanks, Grace Kelly and William Shatner, before stopping its regular summer schedule in 1987. The production equipment is comprised mostly of used equipment and hand-me-downs from other theatres. Rowley says a full setup of rigging, lighting and other equipment could cost as much as $250,000, and the foundation is always looking for donors.“We're still kind of tiptoeing into it this year, we're kind of just edging in because we're not fully up and running. We're still an all volunteer organization,” Rowley said.
