What’s Happening in Utah - Week of 2/1/16

The Producers – The Musical
A scheming producer and his mousy accountant aim to produce the biggest flop on Broadway in Mel Brooks’ laugh-out-loud spectacle.  Bialystock and Bloom! Those names should strike terror and hysteria in anyone familiar with Mel Brooks’ classic cult comedy film. Now as a big Broadway musical, The Producers once again sets the standard for modern, outrageous, in-your-face humor. It is a truly “boffo” hit, winning a record twelve Tony Awards and wowing capacity crowds night after night

DATES and TIMES: February 2 - 7, 2016

VENUE: Capitol Theatre
50 West 200 South
Salt Lake City, UT 84101




An Evening of Fine Chocolate
Utah chocolatier Eric Durtschi made a splash locally and nationally when he introduced his roasted, brewed cocoa drink, Crio Brü. Now he’s expanding with Durci, a line of fine artisan chocolate bars made with beans from Ecuador, Peru, Venezuela, and the Dominican Republic. Chocolate lovers won’t want to miss this instructive and scrumptious evening with one of Utah’s chocolate experts.

Timber! Cirque Alfonse
Taking inspiration from the woods surrounding their own real-life family farm, Cirque Alfonse’s talented tumblers and musicians create a crazily unique acrobatic experience set in the world of loggers and traditional Canadian farm life. There are balancing acts on tree stumps, banjo sounds and men with bushy beards performing synchronized axe juggling – with real axes. If you enjoy daring feats of strength and skill, but are ready for a new cast of acrobats whose sense of fun and humor is as abundant as their beards, then this is show you won’t want to miss.
