Shrek: The Musical September 13-October 5, 2013 SCERA Center for the Arts - Orem If you liked the movie 'Shrek,' you'll likely love 'Shrek: the Musical,' says Chase Ramsey, who is directing the production to open SCERA's 2013-2014 indoor season. That's because the stage allows for more intimacy, and, besides, who wouldn't like a green ogre, dragon, Pinocchio and your favorite Shrek characters within five or so feet in front of them? Ramsey is counting on a great deal of magic combined with an armload of imagination to take a parable reminiscent of the ugly duckling and turn it on its ear with comedy and craziness.   < More Info

The Damnation of Faust  September 27-28, 2013 Abravanel Hall - Salt Lake City Witness the story of Faust and his fateful deal with the devil. Berlioz based his "dramatic legend" on Goethe's famous play and the music requires a huge cast of instrumentalists and singers.  Faust  is an ingenious combination of opera and oratorio and though it was not a success while Berlioz was alive, it now ranks among his finest creations.   < More Info
