Sundance Summer Theatre

Please join us for another great year of art and entertainment amidst the backdrop of Mt. Timpanogos at the Eccles Stage.

The Sundance Summer Theatre is proud to present, in partnership with Utah Valley University, The Fantasticks.

This popular musical centers around two fathers who, in an effort to make their children fall in love, erect a wall between their houses to keep them apart “since children never do what you want them to.” The plot works and the young couple fall in love only to discover their fathers’ scheme.  As a result, the two strike out into the world separately to find their own paths, which eventually lead them back to one another, more worldly wise and mature.

Performances run every Monday, Thursday, Friday and Saturday night.
Performances begin at 8 p.m.
Doors open at 7 p.m.

A special barbecue dinner is available before each

beverages, are also available for purchase.
