About Us
Veritas Productions is a female-founded, multi-faceted, full-service production company based in Colorado. We specialize in musical theatrical productions, from small-scale cabarets to fully staged Broadway musicals.
Our Mission: Cultivate theatrical distinction in Colorado’s vibrant performing arts community through our commitment to Excellence, Professionalism, Integrity, Community, and Collaboration (E.P.I.C.C. Standards). We are raising the bar one production at a time.
In late 2021, Founding & Producing Artistic Director Nancy Evans Begley formed Veritas Productions as an ambitious next step in her arts career. She wanted to combine her decades of experience in performing, directing, and choreographing with her passion for community by creating her own full-scale production company.
We specialize in taking any production from conception to realization, partnering with Colorado’s finest directors, designers, choreographers, marketing experts, and community leaders to create meaningful art with flawless execution. We can manage an entire project from start to finish or consult on any facet of a fully staged production, regardless of size or budget.
Our name, Veritas, is the Latin word for truth, a value we hold both on stage and off. We work collaboratively, professionally, and with integrity, creating art that is authentic from casting to curtain call.
NON-DISCRIMINATION POLICY: Veritas Productions does not discriminate based on age, gender, sexual orientation, gender identity, race, ethnicity, or disability (visible or invisible). We are committed to fair casting and contract practices and will have a certified consultant present at all casting and audition events and discussions. We will work to ensure equitable access to all communications, announcements, events, and programming, and welcome anyone to submit their candidacy for any of our productions.
