Sugar Factory Playhouse
West Jordan, Utah
After the city bowery was demolished to make way for a new fire station, West Jordan Theater Arts opened the 230-seat Sugar Factory Playhouse in the city's old sugar factory. Inspired by Trolley Square, the West Jordan City Council planned to renovate the sugar factory and turn it into a cultural arts center with a larger auditorium, amphitheater, art gallery, conference center, reception hall, and retail center. Expensive seismic upgrades eventually doomed the project and the sugar factory was demolished by the end of 2010.

Kanab Theatre Adds New Features in Projection Equipment
Kane County Standard, 22 January 1942, page 1
Harvey Judd, local manager of the Kanab Theatre, stated this week that two high-intensity arc lamps installed over the week end are responsible for the clearer pictures now being shown at the Kanab Theatre. New shutters were also installed on the projection machines to reduce the heat on the film and thus eliminate any possible fire hazard.
