Welcome to Crested Butte Mountain Theatre!
The Crested Butte Mountain Theatre was born in the summer of 1972 by an energetic, talented group of people who had the vision to see a remote community provide some of its own unique culture. The first show was Dark of the Moon, played against the backdrop of a full moon rising from behind Crested Butte Mountain. Spectators sat on blankets in the grass, enthralled by the astonishing event unfolding before them. On stage were their friends - acting, singing, playing, and dancing. Today, we continue that tradition with a state of the art lighting system and a newly designed theatre. We welcome you to join us in 2019 as a participant, volunteer or guest, young and old alike, and help us celebrate our 5th decade of community theatre.
Check out this video as CBMT's very own, Mary Tuck, talks about our theatre being a playground for people!
