Kevin is a successful entrepreneur who owns Pandora’s Toy Box, the upscale lingerie store on Broadway, and Kevin Larson Presents, an event-planning company that caters to 20- to 30-something Denverites seeking an alternative to the bar scene to network, mingle and have fun. Like the real Hef, Kevin likes to throw pajama-themed parties, keep the company of beautiful women, and he has an unapologetic stance on the benefits of expressing your sexuality.
Kevin also possesses an incredible work ethic. Running a store and planning parties is not all this he does; he owns a manufacturing and a design company, and he has launched a membership-only group comprised of Denver's young social set, called Nuevo Societé, for networking and charitable contribution purposes. And, he’s writing a performance piece, which he describes as “theater surreal, kind of a Cirque du Soleil meets Stomp meets De LaGuarda,” which he hopes will make it to Broadway someday. “I just want to have fun, get crazy and raise some money for charity in the process,” Kevin says. And judging by the list of parties he has coming up this year, including the “Eyes Wide Shut” Ball, the “Foam Party,” the “Fashion and Passion” fashion show, and the fall “Jammy Jam,” where PJs are mandatory, it looks like things just might get a little crazy.
