I could feel the anticipation for this one. Timp Arts production of Matilda the Musical has had some real buzz around town. I could tell people were definitely making plans to attend this show. This should come as no surprise. First of all, Matilda has become a favorite story for children of all ages. Whether it be the book by Roald Dahl, the 1996 film, the 2013 Broadway Musical, or the 2022 film adaptation of the musical, people love the story of Matilda. Secondly, Timp Arts has been on a real hot streak as of late. Their productions have been of the utmost quality, displaying some of the best rising talent in the area.

Back to the Future: The Musical Brings Time-Traveling Spectacle to Eccles Theater
There are few films as beloved and instantly recognizable as Back to the Future, so transforming the iconic movie into a stage musical comes with enormous expectations. Audiences at Eccles Theater in Salt Lake City arrived with memories of DeLoreans, flux capacitors, and Marty McFly’s adventures firmly in mind. What they experienced was a production that embraced the spirit of the original film while delivering a theatrical spectacle that stood on its own.

A Chorus Line is one of the most successful musicals of all time. Winner of 9 Tony Awards in 1976, including Best Musical, A Chorus Line became the longest-running show in Broadway history. It has since been surpassed by a number of other productions (Phantom of the Opera is the current title holder). But for years, if you went to New York City to see a Broadway show, this was the musical to see. It’s interesting because the show has virtually no set and has minimal costume changes. The show rests completely on the singing, dancing, and acting of the cast.Â

I had the opportunity to see a musical I had never even heard of, at a theater not far from my house (that I had strangely never knew existed), from a theater company producing its first ever show. I was excited for the new experiences. My expectations were not at an all-time high. How can a first-time production from a brand new theater company possibly be as good as some of the many well-established theater companies in the area? Well, I’m here to tell you that Sentinel Theatre is off to a great start. Their production of “Dogfight†was an entertaining night of really well-done theater.

With the Tony Awards being broadcast this Sunday night, it felt fitting to find myself inside Eccles Theater watching a musical. A Tony Award-winning (Best Orchestrations) musical at that. The audience seemed in great spirits, ready to enjoy another great evening in downtown Salt Lake City with another show in the Broadway At The Eccles series.
Girl From The North Country is a musical featuring the music and lyrics of the great Bob Dylan with the book by Conor McPherson. It is set in Duluth, Minnesota in 1934 in the shadow of The Great Depression. The show takes place inside a guesthouse, or hotel of sorts. The cast consists of various people staying at the home. As the show goes along we are made aware of the different trials, tribulations, and struggles that each character faces or has experienced.
