Offering rotating special guests each night, the edgy variety show BALLS! A Holiday Spectacular is an opportunity to catch a cross-section of Denvers creative class while giving back to the community at a relatively modest cost. Proceeds from each performance benefit a different charity. Its a chance for people to have fun and be philanthropists without drawing too much on their pocketbook, says BALLS! co-creator Mare Trevathan. We also wanted to do something different. Denver just didnt have anything for the holidays that filled our desire for something other than The Nutcracker.
