Empire Lyric Players have been singing, dancing, and forging lifelong friendships in the Mile High City since 1958.

As one of the oldest surviving “G & S” societies in the country, we represent an irreplaceable creative hub to hundreds of talented amateurs, professional musicians, and hardcore fans. 

Together, we create "shockingly good" comic opera. For laughs.

Mission

The Empire Lyric Players are dedicated to presenting the musical comedies of the English composers Gilbert and Sullivan through stage productions and recitals for the Denver community. All rights, privileges, programs and activities of the Empire Lyric Players are open to all persons without regard to age, race, gender, color, creed, religion, national or ethnic origin, physical or mental disability or sexual orientation.

Background Statement

Empire Lyric Players, aka ELPs, were first organized in 1958 by Holy Family High School graduates, and we've been a constant presence in the Greater Denver theater scene ever since. Our first production was "H.M.S. Pinafore," presented at the Denver Women's Club, and our repertoire now encompasses most of Gilbert and Sullivan's comic operas. We're led by an all-volunteer board of directors.
