It is 15 years after the big Birthday Bash at Nick’s Bar and Grill and it is ranked in the top five in town. The bar has been remodeled with some disagreement, the staff has had some turnover, and a famous Blogger is interviewing Nick and Doreen on the bar’s success. A random musician shows up, sits in with the band and plays “Piano Man”. Several patrons video this and it goes viral and morphs into “Billy Joel is at Nick’s!” Let the mayhem begin!
Some of the locals are back, such as Mormons, the Pirates, and the Pinball Wizard. Also dropping in are the Mob, the Billy Joel Fan Club, and MacGregor with his Irish Step Dancers. Leon still inhabits his spot at the bar. Songs include “Beat It’, “Marry You”, “The Rainy Day We Met”, “Living On A Prayer”, “Stay”, “American Land”, Piano Man”, and “I’m Gonna Be 500 Miles”. There are some “beer” songs as well. Lots of opportunities for character parts and solos.

Earlier this week some members of the board alongside other long term Magic Moments contributors attended the Henry Awards to support KQ as he received his Lifetime Achievement award.
We took a few photos of the event that we wanted to share with you all!
We are proud to share that our long time Artistic Director KQ is being recognised by the Colorado Theatre Guild with a Lifetime Achievement award!
This year’s Colorado Theatre Guild Lifetime Achievement Award recipient is KQ, the Artistic Director of Magic Moments, Inc. KQ started working with Magic Moments in the mid 1980s, began writing and directing productions for them in 1992, and has written and directed all of them since.
Magic Moments Inc. is a 501(c)(3) non-profit organization that promotes the arts by fostering an environment of acceptance, growth, learning, and support for participants and the larger community by inviting people of all ages, with or without disabilities, amateur or professional, to perform in original musical theater productions. For information about the company, go to https://magicmomentsinc.org/
Since the late 1970s, no one has directed more performers in the state of Colorado. In addition to his work with Magic Moments, KQ helped start the Denver School of the Arts with Jane Page, Joe Craft, and others.
He has worked in many capacities in many Denver-area theaters as both performer and technician (never a costume designer though), as well as the Production Manager for World Youth Day in 1993. KQ has worked in theaters around the nation, and he served as a Henry Awards judge for many years. He has degrees in Theater, Teaching, Pre-Med, and many others, and he studied at several universities and the school of life.
