The main type of content for UTBA is reviews of productions that are performed in Utah. The goal for UTBA is to one day review every theatrical production in the state. UTBA does not review dance and ballet productions, opera, performance art, high school plays, or remountings of productions that have been reviewed in the past. UTBA also does not review productions that the cast has paid to participate in (with the exception of a low costume fee, or similar nominal production fee). Other special types of performances—like staged readings, musical revues, improvised productions, and foreign language theatre—may be reviewed, depending on the circumstances and the availability of qualified reviewers.

A few theaters in Utah are open/opening in Utah in spite of strong evidence that this is unsafe.
According to their websites, @Hale_Theatre is requiring masks; however, @SCERAupdate and @thegrandtheatre are only strongly recommending them.

Last week, a friend that I have known for, literally, half my life lost his battle against ALS. I wrote a short tribute to him for @UtahTheatreBlog.

Fascinating review by @Miranda9er for SONDERimmersive's THROUGH YONDER WINDOW, an experimental adaptation of ROMEO & JULIET that is tailored for the #coronavirus pandemic.

Our president, @Russwarne, shared a few thoughts about @uvuarts director and professor Chris Clark, who passed away after a battle with ALS. 😢 #utahtheatre

Chris's obituary is online and appropriately great.
"He was undoubtedly met on the other side by loved ones, ancestors, and answers to all the conspiracies he long suspected." #WellRoaredLion #UtahTheatre

New #utahtheatre review of @SCERAupdate's THE SCARLET PIMPERNEL, the 2nd show and 1st musical that we've reviewed since the #covid19 pandemic shut down all stage shows in the state.

Does your show have a safety captain? Are actors applying makeup at home? Are you reducing crowding in dressing rooms?
These are some of probing questions that producers should be asking after reading @foxybronze's article.
