Upcoming Shows
Copperfield
May 16, 2019 – May 18, 2019
Based on the novel "David Copperfield" by Charles Dickens, in an original production devised by the company. Charles Dickens has said on multiple occasions that his favorite work that he ever created was his epic novel "David Copperfield." Young David Copperfield grows up in 19th century London surrounded by an incredible cast of characters that range from goofy to tragic to evil to genuinely loving, but they all shape the man that he becomes. This seminal work will now be brought to life in and around the audience in a new and innovative staging that aims at re-telling this amazing story for modern audiences. Patterned after the Royal Shakespeare Company's world-famous production of "The Life and Adventures of Nicholas Nickleby," this new work is sure to be an unmissable theatrical event. "Copperfield" will be an immersive show with limited on-stage seating. **If you require more than average leg room or seat width, it is in your best interest to reserve your seats in row A of sections M, N, O, or P.** If you require a wheelchair, please email our ticketing coordinator, Jack Cobabe, at [email protected]

Akhnaton
Mar 14, 2019 – Mar 16, 2019
AKHNATON by Agatha Christie. One of the word's greatest writers takes us to Ancient Egypt in this exciting, thoughtful and suspenseful drama. After years of research, Dame Christie created this tale of deceit, love, and revolution. The story follows the Pharaoh Akhaton, his wife Nefertiti, his son-in-law Tutankhamen, and a myriad of other fascinating characters, as they try to lead Egypt and the world through a turbulent time of change and confusion. This play was written in 1937 but never performed or published during Agatha Christie's lifetime even though it was one of her favorite and best works, because of the extravagance and epic nature of the story and characters. And here it is at Hillcrest in 2019 making its Utah Premiere

This will also be the first time in over 20 years that Hillcrest has produced one of Stephen Sondheim's musicals.
