New Shakespeare Theatre
Cedar City, Utah
On 16 February 2012, the Utah Shakespeare Festival announced plans to build a $26.5 million Shakespeare theater on 200 West, between Center Street and College Avenue. The new 900-seat theater will feature amenities missing from the current Adams Memorial Shakespearean Theatre, such as public restrooms and a backstage area. A retractable roof will expand the season and allow for possible year-round usage. The playhouse will allow for additional performances, which will draw an additional 30,000 patrons to Cedar City and increase the economic impact of the Festival by an estimated $8 million annually.

Article Summary:
The Davis Drive-In was demolished in November 1992 to make way for new
development on the 23-arce site. There was no specific plan for the
site, but developers wanted to clear the land to make it more
attractive to a potential buyer. "Last summer was the theater's finale
final season."
