The Big Yellow Inn is one block from the Utah Shakespeare Festival, so you can leave your car in our lot and walk to the theater. Founded in 1961, the Festival won the Tony Award for Outstanding Regional Theatre in 2000 and presents Shakespeare, Broadway musicals and other plays in repertory from late June through early October.
Performances are held at the Beverley Taylor Sorenson Center for the Arts on the Southern Utah University campus, in three theaters: the open-air Engelstad Shakespeare Theatre, the Randall L. Jones Theatre and the intimate Eileen and Allen Anes Studio Theatre. Before evening shows, enjoy the free Greenshow on the Festival grounds.
With several plays running at once, many guests stay a few nights and see a different show each day. Summer weekends fill quickly, so book early. Visit bard.org for this season's plays and tickets.
