Annie

Leapin’ Lizards! The popular comic strip heroine takes center stage in one of the world’s best-loved musicals.

Annie is a spunky Depression-era orphan determined to find her parents, who abandoned her years ago on the doorstep of a New York City Orphanage run by the cruel, embittered Miss Hannigan. In adventure after fun-filled adventure, Annie foils Miss Hannigan’s evil machinations, befriends President Franklin Delano Roosevelt and finds a new family and home in billionaire Oliver Warbucks, his personal secretary Grace Farrell, and a lovable mutt named Sandy .

Winner of nine 1977 Tony Awards—including Best Musical—t his celebrated family show comes to Tuacahn at last! Featuring a bright tuneful score which has long since become a part of our nation’s cultural heritage, an eclectic mix of colorful characters, and a classic villainess, it’s no wonder this heartwarming show has become a contemporary classic.

Mystic Hot Springs presents Wisebird Band

Wisebird Band, Rock Music, Mystic Music, Mystic Hot Springs, Sevier County, Utah, ConcertWisebird’s recently released self-titled album is a faithful testament to the band’s affinity for the roots of American music. The album captures the organic sound of Wisebird’s heralded live performances. With astonishing musicianship and a passion for song craft, Wisebird takes their audience on a journey–from the up-tempo, second line rhythm of “Immortal Blues” to the gospel-stomp of “Hell” to the gritty funk of “Daylight in the Swamp”. The impressive caliber of this ‘group on the rise’ is attributed to their years of hard work and dedication, which they continually bring to the table. Wisebird individually and collectively has shared the bill with such distinguished national acts as The Derek Trucks Band, The Doobie Brothers, Hot Buttered Rum, The Avett Brothers and many more. Wisebird has played shows from coast to coast, and has been warmly received at festivals such as Desert Rocks, Wakarusa and Las Tortugas. The band continues to garner new fans everywhere they go. With a well-earned popularity in the Western and Northern regions, Wisebird is currently digging their heels into the roots of the Austin music scene and delivering their addictive rhythmic vibes throughout the South and beyond. Hands-down; Wisebird is a show not to be missed.

Utah Shakespearean Festival

The Utah Shakespearean Festival was founded in 1961 and presented its first season in 1962. It was started in response to two influences: summer tourists desiring more evening activities after visiting the area’s six national parks, and a young actor’s desire to produce great theatre. Festival Founder Fred C. Adams, having just come to Cedar City after trying out the New York theatre scene for a few years, was new to the College of Southern Utah (now Southern Utah University) in 1959. However, seeing 150,000 annual summer tourists to the area, he knew he had a great potential audience for a theatre festival. Excited by the idea, he packed up his notes and ideas and visited Ashland, Oregon, the site of the granddaddy of all Shakespeare festivals, the Oregon Shakespeare Festival. While there, he closely observed operations and was befriended by Angus Bowmer, the OSF founder, whom Adams interviewed extensively. On the long ride back to Cedar City, the Utah Shakespearean Festival was born.
