After 3-1/2 years of diligent construction, Aztec Shawnee Theater opened in December 2020. We are showcasing some of the most incredible local and regional music acts in the beautifully restored auditorium for intimate, up-close, and personal concerts. We are currently booking for private events including class reunions, birthday parties, corporate meetings, etc. The maximum occupancy of the theater is 270 but we are currently limiting ticket sales and entry to less than 200 to allow for safety and proper social distancing. The theater has vinyl auditorium-style seating that is sanitized thoroughly after every use. Aztec Shawnee Theater aims to be one of the most beautiful, single-screen theaters in the area. Visitors will witness firsthand the “golden age” of movies through vintage and classic film showings. The “movie palace” experience will be an integral part of all activities at Aztec Shawnee Theater. The Aztec Group plans to get Aztec Shawnee Theater on the National Register of Historic Places.

Your headliner: STEVEN ROGERS
Steven Rogers is a stand-up comedian known for his unique blend of wit, vulnerability, and sharp observational humor. His comedic style combines relatable mishaps, personal struggles, and endearing storytelling, often drawing from his own life experiences. Steven's fresh take on everyday challenges has earned him a devoted following and widespread recognition in the comedy world.
Steven has opened for some of the biggest names in comedy, including Brian Regan, Joe List, Tom Papa, Nate Bargatze, and Taylor Tomlinson. His clever, rapid-fire material has earned him appearances on major TV shows such as The Late Show with Stephen Colbert, The Late Late Show with James Corden, Dry Bar Comedy, and Don’t Tell Comedy.

Your opener: Mike Heath
Mike Heath is a Seattle-based comedian originally from Lexington, Missouri, currently competing as a semifinalist in Seattle’s Funniest Person Comedy Competition.

He has shared the stage with world-class comedians including Dusty Slay, Matt Braunger, Danny Jolles, and KC Shornima. His comedy will remind you that it's good to be silly and not so serious all the time.

Zach has performed in cities such as Kansas City, Minneapolis, St. Louis, and Denver.
