A Touch of Drama

Each summer, Logan becomes Utah¡¯s Heart of the Arts when the award-winning Utah Festival Opera and Musical Theatre welcomes than 300 performers straight from New York City and Broadway to present famed works such as Barber of Seville, The Secret Garden, Into the Woods and Amazing Grace alongside concerts, backstage tours, breakfast with the stars and academy classes. Ticket prices are affordable, the scenery and costumes are spectacular, and the performances are brilliant. Right around the corner is the 1913 Caine Lyric Theatre, home of the Lyric Repertory Company, one of the only true remaining repertory companies in the nation. The same lead performers star in a rotating schedule featuring a musical, a mystery, a drama and a comedy. Nearby, the newly restored 1924 Utah Theatre hosts live performances and classic movies.
