Does anyone else attend this? Each year I am amazed at the quality of their productions. It first got my attention several years ago when the festival won a Tony. Who would think you could find this caliber of theater in Cedar City Utah? 

This years production of Amadeus is spectacular. It could easily transfer to Broadway.

Yes, they've had some amazing productions there.  Quinn Mattfield, who is Mr. Wormwood in the Matilda tour, was a big star there.  I loved him in Boeing, Boeing last year.  Sadly, Amadeus was the only show I didn't see there this season.

Patrick Page was also a huge star there.

 

I worked there in undergrad and had a blast.

I believe most of the actors come from NYC?

I've stopped there and seen several excellent productions. AMADEUS was one of the best of them, maybe THE best. They seem to have a large local following, and many theatre buffs make the trip from Las Vegas, which is only two to three hours away.

This year when I went I met people who had traveled from Arizona and Texas.

I meet people from all over every year. I was with several people from NYC this year.
