Our Story
For over 30 years, Conifers StageDoor Theatre has been a cornerstone of the mountain community, providing a welcoming and supportive environment for all who seek to explore the performing arts. Originally founded as The Shadow Mountain Theatre Company, the organization has evolved significantly since its inception in 1990. In 1995, it was renamed Conifers StageDoor Theatre, and in 2003, the theatre opened its doors in a new, expanded facility in Aspen Park, doubling its space and enhancing its capacity to serve the community.
StageDoor Theatre offers a variety of programs, including summer workshops and a year-round K-12 education program that has grown from fewer than 50 students in 2003 to over 200 in 2019. These programs provide youth aged 6 to 18 with essential skills in acting, music, dance, and technical arts, fostering self-confidence and public speaking abilities. Adult performers also find a home here, with opportunities to learn and grow through workshops and productions.
