Unique and enjoyable experience. Have seen multiple shows and am always impressed.
The show was unique and amazing!! We saw The Christmas Carol. They also have Art and a museum for all the doll creations.
I would be hard-pressed to find a more enjoyable experience either as a date or for a family with children. The level of artistry that goes into these Productions is absolutely phenomenal. I think that I am super happy that secret garden was the first show that I saw here. It is an amazing production and I am dying to see more as time goes on. Do not miss this opportunity if you have it.
I love puppets they are so cool and I love seeing them check them out
Amazing performance. David is a unique treasure in Colorado Springs. We love all his shows.
Visited on a day with no show... yet the museum was so fascinating, two of our three (age 5-7) grandkids went through twice! :) Dolls, marionettes, and plenty of visual explanation how they were made. Oh, and wonderful mountain photography and paintings to boot!
We only visited the museum so far, as the show was sold out, but it was a gem of a little place! Looking forward to seeing a show. The kids enjoyed it because it was great to play I Spy. The details that go into the displays are so well done. It was $3 a person, and we spent about an hour enjoying the transportation into classic tales and wonderlands. There was a lot of Christmas items and turned out to be a great stop for the holidays, but could be enjoyed year round too.
If you get a chance, this is a great place to go. Great for kids and adults alike. A one-man show, and he and his wife hand make the marionettes. A unique experience in our digital age. Took my grandchildren and they absolutely loved it. The puppeteer comes from a family of doll makers, so take a moment to see the dolls his family created over the years.
It was Excellent, we have enjoyed each performance that we have had the privilege to see! The talents and craftsmanship exceeds your highest expectations very very good! Thank you simpich family we greatly appreciate your talents and sharing them with the world!
As always, the family take very good care of you and the show is always top notch. Mr. Simpich has a lot of talent and does a great job!
The Simpich Showcase offers outstanding dramatic presentations through the medium of marionettes. David Simpich is a master puppeteer. I have been enthralled by his productions and his marionettes. Every one should see one of his shows.
Simpich never fails to impress!
You have to experience the wonderful world of David simpich and the wonderful marionettes
Was an extremely great show so much talent, just hope the Left doesnt get ahold of this great story of Christ and GOD. Wonderful Wonderful love it
Best marionette artist in the world!
Absolutely wonderful and worth every penny. Beautiful!
What an amazing OCC treasure! The artistry of the Simpich family is such a privilege to experience. Whether it is one of their fine dolls, the museum, or the marionette theater, no trip to the Colorado Springs area is complete without a visit to a long standing Colorado Springs Tradition at the Simpich Galleries. I am so truly honored to have had a chance to see a master apply his craft. Live marionette theater is a dying art form and the one man marionette show makes it rarer still. David Simpich is a master and a visionary. Thank you David and the Simpich family for the beauty you create in this world
I absolutely adore this wonderful theater. The many different productions they offer are all excellent, but the fact they transport me back in time when I was a kid make it more special. It certainly makes this affordable entertainment something I want to do again and again.
David Simpich was at his best. I was able to catch his last show of The Puppet Maker-The Story of Christmas.
Such a treat every time we go! We all enjoy the shows and very reasonable prices for tickets.
If you have time buy tickets to a marionette show - it is wonderful!
A unique experience performed by a master puppeteer who has definitely mastered his craft.
I took my daughter n law and granddaughter to see the Secret Garden! We loved it!
Marionettes and a talented puppeteer weaving wholesome and whimsical stories in the spirit of a family tradition
Great puppet performance of The Secret Garden - worth a trip.
Simpichs theater and showcase in Old Colorado City is a reality treat for any age, especially children and young people who are addicted to computers. David Simpichs live theater lets you enjoy something real and not on a screen. There are so few live entertainments left in this country, unless you live in NYC with Broadway. Give your family a real treat some afternoon, with a nearby lunch and then visit Simpichs free showcase and modestly priced live show! He brings out the kid in all of us with traditional, old time stories. You wont be disappointed!
Complimentary admission, includes a fine arts gallery. The hours arent posted, so check their website.
We go to the Simpich Theater often. We LOVE it every time. NEVER disappointed. Cant recommend it enough!!!!!!
We like this theater. However, we didnt care for the Mermaid show. One reason is that Mr. Simpich did too much talking. The story line was also hard to follow.
Great displays, fun shows. :-)
Absolutely fascinating, and Mr. Simpich is an incredibly talented individual!
Fascinating. A must see.
It was a fantastic show!
AMAZING!!!!
Hidden gem, handmade puppetry.
Masters of performance. I cant believe I waited so long to experience this.
