Billie McBride is one of Denver's top theatre personalities. I first saw her when she appeared in LOVE LETTERS at Boulder Ensemble Theatre Company on Valentine's Day. The show was wonderful, but Billie stood out to me as someone I wanted and needed to know; but, it was her immediate & kind response (to this unknown Boulder commodity) that led me to realize, YES, she was as wonderful as I dreamed she would be. Billie NEVER STOPS WORKING. She is currently directing MIRACLE ON 34TH STREET which opens this weekend at Littleton's Town Hall Performing Arts Center. The show opens on November 21 and plays through December. (See below for ticket information)
I also saw her in Heartbeat of the Sun, a world premiere at Cherry Creek Theatre written by the prolific and local playwright Melissa McCarl. She played Joan in The Year of Magical Thinking at the Aurora Fox Theatre, directed for The Denver Center Academy’s One-Act Play Festival, and directed the musical Memphis at the Town Hall Arts Center in Littleton. She spent 20 years in NYC before moving to Colorado to do theatre and Television. Her NY Broadway stage credits include Torch Song Trilogy (Helen Hayes) (just wait until you hear her story about working with the fabulous Harvey Fierstein), Safe Sex (Lyceum), and The Kurt Weill Cabaret (Bijou Theatre). Since moving to Colorado she has worked in many theatres as a director and actress including the DCTC, The Arvada Center, Curious Theatre, Miners Alley Playhouse, And Toto Too, The Denver Children’s Theatre, CSFAC, CCT, and TheatreWorks.
Her TV and film credits include All My Children, Secret Storm, The Return of Ironside, Perry Mason, The Shining, and The Laramie Project.
Billie has won 3 Henry Awards for acting and directing in the Colorado area, The True West Award for Theatre Person of the Year (2016), the Theatre Lifetime Achievement Award in (2014) and a True West Award again in both (2021 and 2023).
