Located in Cedar City, Utah, the Tony Award–winning Utah Shakespeare Festival brings world-class theatre to life each summer. Being a true repertory company, the Festival presents seven to eight productions each year from June through October across three unique theaters. Each season features works by William Shakespeare, our cornerstone playwright, along with a variety of other plays and musicals. Guests can also enjoy free Festival experiences, including seminars, orientations, and our lively Greenshow—an outdoor performance of music, dance, and comedy before the evening plays. There are also paid experiences such as our Backstage Tours and Repertory Magic, where you can watch sets change in real time.
The whole experience - grounds, pre-play lecture, green show, theater, Hamlet - was excellent

I have been going to this festival for years now, and it has given me the best productions I have ever seen. During 2 hours, they can make you laugh and cry. The actors are amazingly talented, and they never stop connecting with the audience in moving ways. This festival will always hold a special place in my heart.
