Adams Mystery Playhouse

As historic and iconic buildings in Denver go, the mansion that houses Adams Mystery Playhouse on the corner of 24th and Federal is right up there. Originally built in 1900 as a residential home and repurposed as a mortuary in 1934, this place has stood the test of time. If you want to hear more about this fascinating history, just grab Carlos or Marne one night at a show and they will give you the inside story that only they can tell. It's a great example of how the history of Denver is being kept alive and well!
