Adams Shakespearean Theatre
Cedar City, Utah
In the early 1960s, business owners worried that the proposed Interstate 15 would divert tourists from Cedar City as they travelled to Zions and Bryce Canyon national parks. Fred C. Adams, a professor at Southern Utah State College, thought a theater festival might encourage passing tourists to exit the new freeway. For its first season in 1962, the Utah Shakespeare Festival used a makeshift outdoor platform as a stage, with the audience seated in folding chairs on the lawn. In 1977, the festival built the Adams Shakespearean Theatre, a replica of the original Globe Theatre.

Insurance Figures as Received
Davis County Clipper, 5 March 1909, page 1
Mr. Rampton is quoted in a paper as having said that our insurance figures as given in connection with the account of the opera house fire last week were incorrect. All we have to say is, that we got the figures direct from him and we are positive that we understood him correctly and that they were printed as he told us.
