Third Saturday for families: Kumihimo Japanese Braiding
Looking for a free family activity in Salt Lake City? Look no further than the Utah Museum of Fine Arts! Admission to the Museum is free every third Saturday of the month, and there is always an art-making activity for the whole family. This Third Saturday you’ll create artful braids inspired by Japanese art.
The UMFA has two beautiful swords on view in the Japanese art gallery. The masterful artistry of the sword makers is evident in the metalwork, but the swords also have intricate silk braids on the handle and scabbard. The art of braiding these ties is called Kumihimo.
Find inspiration in the work of these masters of Kumihimo and practice in the classroom using a small loom and thread.

John Proctor Is the Villain — Utah Professional Premiere
by Kimberly Belflower
Directed by Karen Azenberg
September 11-26, 2026
Simmons Pioneer Memorial Theatre

A fierce, funny play about teenage girls rewriting the rules—and reclaiming their own stories.
Fueled by earbuds full of pop anthems, sheer determination, and a simmering sense of justice, five teenage girls are ready to confront the buried truths hiding in their small, single-stoplight town. A recent Broadway hit from playwright Kimberly Belflower, this bold, sharp-witted, and fiercely relevant play reexamines the stories we inherit and asks who gets to define what’s true — delivering a work that’s as entertaining as it is essential.

A fierce, funny play about teenage girls rewriting the rules—and reclaiming their own stories.
Fueled by earbuds full of pop anthems, sheer determination, and a simmering sense of justice, five teenage girls are ready to confront the buried truths hiding in their small, single-stoplight town. A recent Broadway hit from playwright Kimberly Belflower, this bold, sharp-witted, and fiercely relevant play reexamines the stories we inherit and asks who gets to define what’s true — delivering a work that’s as entertaining as it is essential.

Experience the artistry of internationally acclaimed sitar virtuoso and composer Niladri Kumaar, one of the most innovative voices in Indian music today. Revered for his mastery of Indian classical traditions and celebrated for pushing the boundaries of the art form, Kumaar creates performances that are both deeply rooted and strikingly contemporary.
In Space Between the Notes, Kumaar honors his longtime musical partnership with the legendary Zakir Hussain through music inspired by their final recorded live performance together, captured in Mumbai and released as a landmark album. Hussain was part of UtahPresents’ 2024–25 season, but his passing just two months before the performance prevented the highly anticipated appearance, and this concert brings the story full circle.

Salt Lake Symphony: TWO CLASSICS AND A SURPRISE! [U Arts Pass Event]
Our 51st season opens with two audience favorites, the Variations on a Theme by Haydn by Johannes Brahms and the Sixth Symphony of Antonin Dvorak. Both are examples of the finest orchestral writing of the late 19th century, helping assure both composers of their place in history. The Variations are not, as advertised, on a theme by Haydn, yet Brahms and his publisher probably knew this. As the theme was believed by the public to be by the venerated composer, the name stuck (and likely helped sell the piece to audiences!). Dvorak’s Symphony no. 6 is an example of a composer at the top of his creative game, blending Czech folk elements with traditional symphonic writing to produce a wholly unique sound. Orchestras and audiences love both works, but they will also be enchanted by our opening piece, an overture to a little-known opera by Dame Ethel Smyth, an English composer not well known in America. Smyth was a fascinating woman, the first female composer to receive a damehood (the equivalent of a male being…

Jazz at Kingsbury Hall
He is “A beguiling saxophonist.” – Los Angeles Times. She is “A jazz vocal phenomenon.” – The Guardian. Together they are making magic.
Renowned saxophonist Branford Marsalis is a versatile performer, equally at home playing concertos with symphony orchestras and sitting in with members of the Grateful Dead. His main focus lies with the Branford Marsalis Quartet, a celebrated ensemble that, in the words of reviewer John Zeugner, is “casually confident...cerebral, and supercharged with energy.”
At UtahPresents, the Branford Marsalis Quartet is joined by Diane Reeves, the most prominent vocalist in jazz today. Reeves is best known for her improvisational skill and her one-of-a-kind R&B and jazz stylings. She made Grammy history by being the first vocal artist to win a Grammy award on three consecutive recordings.
Both Marsalis and Reeves have been designated as Jazz Masters by The National Endowment for the Arts, the highest honor the United States bestows on jazz artists. Together,…

A Co-Production with Arizona Theatre Company, Musical, Feed the plant…if you dare.
Based on the 1960 low budget Roger Corman horror movie (starring Jack Nicholson!), this cult classic musical is a perennial favorite and is currently enjoying a hugely successful Off-Broadway revival in New York. Little Shop of Horrors is the story of a beleaguered flower shop assistant who discovers a strange carnivorous plant that thrives on (gulp) human blood! With a score by Alan Menken and Howard Ashman (of Disney’s Beauty and the Beast and The Little Mermaid fame) and featuring hit songs like “Somewhere That’s Green,” “Suddenly Seymour,” as well as the title song, it’s a monster hit!
“A cult classic of camp, horror and catchy tunes in equal measure.”

Little Shop of Horrors
Book & Lyrics by Howard Ashman
Music by Alan Menken
Based on the film by Roger Corman | Screenplay by Charles Griffith
Directed & Choreographed by Gerry McIntyre
October 23-November 7, 2026
Simmons Pioneer Memorial Theatre
A Co-Production with Arizona Theatre Company, Musical, Feed the plant…if you dare.
Based on the 1960 low budget Roger Corman horror movie (starring Jack Nicholson!), this cult classic musical is a perennial favorite and is currently enjoying a hugely successful Off-Broadway revival in New York. Little Shop of Horrors is the story of a beleaguered flower shop assistant who discovers a strange carnivorous plant that thrives on (gulp) human blood! With a score by Alan Menken and Howard Ashman (of Disney’s Beauty and the Beast and The Little Mermaid fame) and featuring hit songs like “Somewhere That’s Green,” “Suddenly Seymour,” as well as the title song, it’s a monster hit!
“A cult classic of camp, horror and catchy tunes in equal measure.”

by Ain Gordon & Josh Quillen
“Gordon and Quillen balance humor and sorrow to tell us a wonderfully paced, colorful story that doesn’t feel devastating or superficial.” – Arizona Daily Star
Theater artist Ain Gordon and percussionist Josh Quillen’s moving new work blurs the lines between concert, theater, and memoir.
Inspired by Quillen’s family story, Relics and Their Humans journeys to his hometown of Dover, Ohio and explores the years following his father’s ALS diagnosis. Through a recorded interview, a personal journal, and an unexpected playlist, the performance pieces together a deeply personal portrait of family, resilience, and love.
At the heart of the work is an unforgettable tribute to Quillen’s mother, whose humor, strength, and unwavering devotion illuminate every moment. Combining live music, storytelling, and inventive theatrical design, Gordon and Quillen transform intimate family history into a powerful shared experience.
With inventive dramaturgy by Talvin Wilks and evocative…

Simmons Pioneer Memorial Theatre
A Co-Production with Arizona Theatre Company, Musical, Feed the plant…if you dare.
Based on the 1960 low budget Roger Corman horror movie (starring Jack Nicholson!), this cult classic musical is a perennial favorite and is currently enjoying a hugely successful Off-Broadway revival in New York. Little Shop of Horrors is the story of a beleaguered flower shop assistant who discovers a strange carnivorous plant that thrives on (gulp) human blood! With a score by Alan Menken and Howard Ashman (of Disney’s Beauty and the Beast and The Little Mermaid fame) and featuring hit songs like “Somewhere That’s Green,” “Suddenly Seymour,” as well as the title song, it’s a monster hit!

Please note – the time of this concert is subject to change. The U of U vs. BYU football game may impact our concert time. Please be prepared to switch to a matinee at 2:00 pm should it be necessary. We will announce the concert time on our website and Facebook page. We will communicate with patrons via the email used to purchase tickets.

Mendelssohn’s The Hebrides (Fingals Cave) is perhaps the finest example of a Romantic-era work depicting landscape. One can hear the waves, sea spray, and even imagine the basalt rock columns that reminded the composer of a pipe organ. Baritone James Bobick joins us to sing Mahler’s Songs of a Wayfarer.
