CEDAR CITY — Part of the Utah Shakespeare Festival experience is the nightly performance of The Greenshow. This free performance uses music, dance, and comedy to bring the spirit of the Shakespeare Festival to audience members before the evening performances. This year there are three versions of The Greenshow, which is an incentive to attend on different nights. The free performances are family friendly, fun, and a way to make the Festival accessible to a wide variety of patrons. Below are photos from the Shakespeare Festival of this year’s productions.
