The Clubhouse in Salt Lake City hosts Danny Savage and his Swingin' Songbook with full-big-band arrangements on Friday August 28th at 6:00 p.m.

Danny Savage and his world-class live band are bringing Swingin' Songbook to The Clubhouse SLC on August 28th. Full big-band arrangements, stunning vocals, an intimate room. The kind of night that reminds you why live music exists.

We're starting the evening with a cocktail hour — come early, get a proper drink, and settle into the room before the band takes the stage. It's the kind of evening where the preamble is half the fun.

Two internationally touring folk/Americana duos, The Rough & Tumble and Flagship Romance combine for the Stokes Nature Canyon Jams series on at Von Baer Park in Providence on Friday August 28th beginning at 7:00 p.m.

Two internationally touring folk/Americana duos, The Rough & Tumble and Flagship Romance combine for a night of high energy, four part harmonies, infectious hooks and a roomful of laughter. It took over 10 years and 500,000 miles of touring the indie/folk circuit and seeing each other’s posters on venue walls before the two bands met. But it only took one meeting before they’d started a text thread and concocted the idea of the Rough Romance tour. It’s a night of open-armed, deep-in-the-belly-songs that are as intimate as they are universal and as delightful as your first cup of coffee. It’s a jubilant show that has become the highlight of the year for many people to watch these four accomplished musicians and friends share the stage.

Concert begins at 7:00 pm at Von Baer Park in Providence. Please bring a chair or blanket to enjoy the show. Lucky Slice pizza will be available for pre-order and delivery to the park beginning the week of the concert.

Parker Theatre in South Salt Lake presents Cyrano de Bergerac playing through August. Showtimes and tickets at https://www.parkertheatre.org/

Enter the world of passion, poetry, and panache with Cyrano de Bergerac, a timeless romantic adventure that has captivated audiences for over a century. Cyrano is a legendary swordsman and wordsmith. Brilliant, brash, but self-burdened by his pronounced nose as he hides his deepest love for Roxane. Complications begin when he lends his eloquence to the young tongue-tied soldier Christian who also loves Roxane. A poignant tale of unspoken love and heroic sacrifice unfolds. Full of swashbuckling action, sweeping romance, and razor-sharp wit, this stirring adaptation of Edmond Rostand’s Cyrano de Bergerac is classical theatre at it’s best.

The Utah Shakespeare Festival presents "See How They Run" playing on Mondays at 2:00 p.m., Tuesdays at 8:00 p.m., Thursdays at 2:00 p.m., and Fridays at 8:00 p.m. in August and September in the Randall L. Jones Theatre in Cedar City.

See How They Run is a classic British farce, packed with mistaken identities, unexpected visitors, and nonstop chaos. Set in a quiet English vicarage during WWII, the play spirals into comedic mayhem as a soldier, a German POW, a Russian spy, and multiple clergymen, converge on the house. Written to boost morale during wartime, this fast-paced comedy delivers delightful confusion and wild fun for audiences of all ages.

The Utah Shakespeare Festival presents Shakespeare's Hamlet playing on Tuesdays and Fridays at 8:00 p.m. through September 4th in the Engelstad Shakespeare Theater in Cedar City.

Prince Hamlet seeks truth—and vengeance. Haunted by his father’s death and disillusioned by a corrupt court, he struggles with doubt, and the weight of his own inaction. As he plots revenge against his uncle, now king, Hamlet spirals deeper into isolation and existential crisis. Written at the height of Shakespeare’s genius, Hamlet is a gripping exploration of conscience, power, and how the burdens of the past shape the future in Shakespeare’s most haunting and psychologically rich tragedy.

Join us for the Seleny Joanne Cup 2026 (SJ Cup ’26), a Utah inter-regional OPEN karate championship organized by the Seleny Joanne Karate Association, a nonprofit organization, in loving memory of Seleny Joanne Crosby, a former karate champion who was called to heaven far too early after a tragic traffic accident. This meaningful event honors her beautiful legacy and passion for karate by bringing together all ages, all ranks, all karate styles, and all martial artists, including athletes with disabilities, for a day of competition, sportsmanship, and unity. The tournament includes kata, kumite, kobudo/weapons, family kata, and para-karate divisions, making it a welcoming and inspiring event for the whole martial arts community.

The day before the tournament, Kancho Masaya Kohama, World President of the International Shotokan Shobukan Karate Association of Japan, will lead world-class kata (forms) and kumite (sparring) seminars. This is a truly rare and special opportunity for Utah and for the entire United States to train directly with a legendary karate master from Japan. Together, these events create an unforgettable weekend of learning, competition, friendship, and tribute.
