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.

Children's Theatre
Ogden Standard Examiner, 5 October 1913, page 11
The "It" theatre is becoming to be known as the "Children's theatre" lately, as many of their offerings are especially interesting to the little folks and this is further evidenced by the presentation of the old fairy tale we have all read of "Hop O' My Thumb" and the "Seven Leagued Boots" in beautiful natural colors on Monday and Tuesday next. It is predicted the children will enjoy this, and the grown-ups too, for that matter.
