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.

Big Benefit at the Ogden Theater
Ogden Standard Examiner, 13 September 1912, page 5
A big benefit performance will be given tonight at the Ogden theater, the proceeds to be given to the members of the Lyceum Stock company, who suffered by the theater fire of last Tuesday.
There is to be a double program presented, the Lyceum company showing “A Celebrated Case,” a drama, in addition to the regular vaudeville bill. This play is a five-act affair in which the company is especially proficient.
It is anticipated that there will be an unusually large crowd in attendance and that the unfortunate Lyceum company will profit accordingly.
