Kingsbury Hall
Salt Lake City, Utah
The University of Utah dedicated its first auditorium, Kingsbury Hall, on 22 May 1930. The $275,000 assembly hall was funded by the State of Utah and named in honor of Joseph T. Kingsbury, who served as President of the University from 1897 until 1926. Kingsbury Hall is one of nine buildings in the University Circle historic district, which was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1978. The auditorium was built with a projection booth and an organ loft, to accommodate silent films.

Article Summary:
Midvale officials agreed to let the West Jordan Arts Council theater troupe use its stage for “See How They Run” after the Sugar Factory Playhouse was closed because it was seismically deficient. Midvale's performing arts center, 695 West 7720 South, is “significantly smaller” than the Sugar Factory Playhouse.
