We may have accidentally created the perfect two-part quest.
Step 1: Join us Thursday for The Lord of the Rings: The Fellowship of the Ring on the big screen. Refresh your memory. Revisit every fellowship moment, every dramatic stare, every suspicious wizard, every "you have my sword" speech.
Step 2: The very next night, the New York theatre company behind Fly, You Fools! arrives at the Wright and attempts the impossible: recreating an entire epic fantasy adventure with three actors, one Foley artist, and what appears to be a dangerously low amount of adult supervision.
This is what scholars call a back-to-back banger.
See the movie Thursday.
Let it settle in,
Then when the live show hits Friday, every scene, sound, and moment is going to absolutely slap.

See you at the Wright!
#Wrightfullyso
The simple act of walking through the pink doors of the Wright Opera House pulls you out of everyday life, out of your own head.
You check in at the box office,
head up the curved stairs and find your seats,
the lights dim,
the room quiets,
and for one precious little while,
you’re somewhere else entirely.
And lucky for you, May has something for everyone, including you, theatre lover:
- Family movies ...
- A Local student art show ...
- Two aerial "circlesque" performances (one 21+)
- Live Theater
- And a perfectly paired Lord of the Rings movie night followed by the hilarious fantasy parody: Fly, You Fools!
This month’s lineup has... RANGE...
Oh, and yes we do still have that old timey movie-house popcorn machine that makes the whole place smell like popcorn on movie nights, too.
It's good popcorn.
Really good popcorn.

Hump day blues?
It's a blues-ey kinda clouday nad rainy day in Ouray, and the perfect weather for an evening with Scott Ibex and Buddy Lane, Tonight @ the Wright.
We are honored to host the final stop on the 2026 Delta Blues Project Spring Tour and work with the Ouray County Performing Arts Guild bringing yet another world class musician
right here to this historic little stage ...
right here in our little mountain town ...
Good work, all around.

We don’t usually make a big splash about our private events… but this one’s worth a shout.
Big love to @rigsflyshop and @tellurideangler for bringing the
<< 20th Anniversary Fly Fishing Film Tour >> to town and to the Wright!
This is a benefit for our local river, the mighty Uncompahgre.
Not only do you get to see some awesome films, but your contribution goes to the good folks who are keeping the river and its wildlife thriving.
It’s a perfect reminder: the Wright has always shown up strong for community gatherings like this.
And honestly… what better reason do we have to come together than the Uncompahgre River?
So come on out. Support a good cause. Swap a few stories. And if it’s your jam, find your way to pitch in and find your part to play.
