FEATURED EVENTS:

Street Car Named Desire May 3-31, 2013 Diamond Lil's - Salt Lake City     They will transport you to 1950's steamy New Orleans and surround you with cool swamp grass hanging from ancient logs and sultry jazz bellowing from the streets as the temperature rises in balmy Louisiana, so does the passions of Williams's intrigues. You will feel you are right in the middle of it all, as the jazz sends you, along with our characters, right to and over the edge. You will have a night you will not soon forget starting with a delicious prime rib dinner with Louisiana flare and ending, upstairs in our private and intimate unique theatre experience which is cross between quote un quote live film and a play. Intermission lets you escape the adventure for a minute with a decadent desert before returning you to the surprise and twists that are Tennessee Williams. This is An American Pulitzer award winning classic that you won't want to miss performed by amazingly talented and provocative actors. < More Info
