Join us for a live demonstration from Whitney Naomi in the Art Studio on December 7.
If you’re planning a visit to our family resort in Utah this summer, don’t miss your opportunity to experience the Summer Theatre — a Sundance tradition since 1970! Set beneath the shadow of magnificent Mt. Timpanogos, a show in our outdoor theater is a family-friendly activity like no other. If the setting alone isn’t enchanting enough, we’re spinning up a little extra magic with this year’s show: Rodgers & Hammerstein’s Cinderella.
Imagine all the best things about a Utah summer night — the stars above in a clear sky, a mountain silhouette overhead, the smell of aspen trees as the cool mountain air sends a breeze through them — and then add top-notch entertainment the entire family will enjoy. That’s the magic of Sundance Summer Theatre, one of the most beloved summer activities at the resort!
Seating options vary in our outdoor theater, but rest assured there is not a bad seat in the house! Purchase tickets for assigned seats in the bench seating area closer to the stage, or enjoy a general admission spot on the lawn. We recommend bringing blankets to sit on (lawn chairs must be lower than 24” in height) for those purchasing general admission tickets.
If you plan to purchase lawn tickets, spots are first-come, first served. We suggest being there when the gates open at 7 p.m. if you want to secure the best spot! Guests are able to make their way up to the amphitheater to wait in line as early as 6 p.m., so plan accordingly and get ready to make some new friends in line!
The arts have always been an integral part of the Sundance Story, and it has been a pleasure to partner with Utah Valley University’s School of the Arts since 2008 in the production of our summer shows. All actors in our productions come from either UVU’s theater department or from surrounding universities. We love partnering with these talented artists every summer! Titles they’ve performed on the Sundance stage in the past include Sound of Music, Fiddler on the Roof, Mamma Mia, and more.
Rodgers & Hammerstein’s Cinderella is a reinvented Broadway adaptation of the Disney classic. This production at the Summer Theatre features Rodgers & Hammerstein’s most beloved songs, including “In My Own Little Corner,” “Impossible/It’s Possible,” and “Ten Minutes Ago.” This modern, comical, and romantic telling of Cinderella brings a touch of magic you won’t want to miss!
You know how the story goes: a girl from the cinders finds her prince against all odds and in the most magical way. What makes seeing this show at the Sundance Summer Theatre extra magical, though, is the setting! The moonlit ballroom dance and the horse-drawn carriage, under the stars of a Utah summer sky in the shadow of Mt. Timpanogos, are truly breathtaking. This will be the outdoor summer event your family talks about for the rest of the year!
Whether you’re a local looking for a family-friendly activity or you are traveling to stay with us on the mountain, don’t miss an evening at the Sundance Summer Theatre! Make it a “dinner and a show” kind of night and join us for a BBQ meal from 6 to 8 p.m.! BBQ meals are available to purchase online or at Concession the night of the show if it is not already sold out. Other dining options available at the resort before the show include the Tree Room, Foundry Grill, The Lookout, and Sundance Deli. Just make sure you dine early enough to be in your seat for the show’s 8 p.m. start!
Shows are on Monday, Thursday, Friday and Saturday from July 21 to August 13. Get your tickets today! We can’t wait to have you join us for an evening of pure magic.
