Alpine Community Theater (ACT) and the Alpine Community Arts Council have teamed up with the Tony Award winning Utah Shakespearean Festival for a very special fund-raising Gala on March 26th, 2010. Festival founder Fred Adams and Executive Director, Scott Phillips are excited to work with ACT and the Alpine Arts Council. “This is a win-win situation”, says Phillips. “We hope that we can help build some attention and interest to what all of you are trying to do in fundraising for your new theater in Alpine, and we want to make your Alpine, Highland, American Fork, and other northern Utah friends and patrons aware of the Utah Shakespearean Festival in Cedar City and what we have to offer.”
The Utah Shakespearean Festival Players will perform a fun, fast-paced Wild West adaptation of “The Taming of the Shrew”. This is Shakespeare as you’ve never seen it and is fun for the whole family. If you’ve always wanted to go to the Utah Shakespeare Festival but never had the opportunity, here’s your chance to see what you’ve been missing. The Lone Peak High School Shakespeare Team will also be on hand to present their award winning competition performances.
This event will be held at Timberline Middle School at 7:30pm. All proceeds will go to help fund ACT’s 2010 summer production of “The Wizard of Oz” which plays July 9th-19th. Auditions for “Oz” will be May 8th at Timberline Middle School. For more information or to purchase tickets for the Shakespeare Gala, please contact Laura Snyder- 763-1225, Chris Culver- 367-0962, or go to AlpineCommunityTheater.org.
