High-tech theater is coming to the Salt Lake City suburbs as a new family-centered venue nears completion. The $80-million Hale Centre Theatre (HCT), part of the growing Cairns master-planned development in Sandy, Utah, will make extensive use of technology and custom-engineered staging from a world-class designer.
For nearly 32 years, the nonprofit theater company has performed popular plays and musicals targeted at families. The need to keep ticket prices affordable and offer more high-quality performances drove the decision to build a new theater, says Mark Dietlein, HCT president and CEO.
