Metamorphoses
2026-04-24 19:00, 2026-04-25 19:00 | First United Methodist Theatre, 420 N. Nevada Ave., Colorado Springs, CO, 80903, United States
Brought to life by the Colorado Springs Conservatory’s High School Preparatory Program students, Metamorphoses weaves together stories of love, loss, humor, and transformation—told with honesty, artistry, and heart.
Metamorphoses is a play based on Ovid’s first-century epic, a poetic collection of Greek myths. Each of the tales – beautiful, strange and often cautionary – comes to some form of radical, bodily transformation. Throughout the centuries, these stories have been interpreted variously as reflections of psychological or spiritual journeys, or even as an early form of science – an encyclopedia of how nature got the way it is. They are always reminders that we, and everything we know, will change. There is humor in the stories as well as tragedy, but the ultimate expression of the piece is that of a faith in the ability of great love to cause great change.

Moms. They raised us, came to our terrible piano recitals, and wiped our snotty noses when we were sick. What better way to tell them how much you appreciate them than with a spectacular Springtime smorgasbord! As so many of you have come to know (and a lucky collection of you are soon to fine out), no one does a brunch buffet like Chef Brent. We’ll have a sample menu out for you in the near future, but trust us; there’s everything you could possibly want and more, as well as a full bar of some spectacular beers, wines, cocktails & mocktails!
$45/person, $20 for kids 4-12, children under 4 eat free. Beer, wine, cocktails and nonalcoholics available for purchase at the bar. Reservations are required, seating is available between 10:00 – 2:00. Call us at 719-306-5006 to save a table today!
