What’s Happening in Utah - Week of 10/17/2016

This week is the Grand Opening of the new Eccles Theater.  We were fortunate enough to see it a few weeks ago and it is amazing.  The space is incredibly beautiful.   A three day event is taking place this week.  One is the Premier Performance and then two open houses.  See more information below.

Guests will get a once-in-a-lifetime chance to experience the first performance at the Eccles Theater. with Tony Award-winning performer Brian Stokes Mitchell and “Smash” television actress and Tony-nominated Broadway performer Megan Hilty. The performance will be hosted by Emmy, Grammy, Tony, and Academy Award-winning singer and actress Rita Moreno and will be accompanied by the Ballet West Orchestra, with music directed by award-winning local favorite Kurt Bestor.
