Zion Theatre Company

Add More Meaning To Your Life

Welcome TO ZION THEATRE COMPANY

Zion Theatre Company is a new organization based in Utah whose commitment is to produce plays of a high moral caliber that resonate with humankind's better nature.  We focus on theatrical work that makes human beings better socially, intellectually, and spiritually. We craft our plays with an artist's care for the aesthetics as well as the philosopher's care for morality.   Our purpose is not to take away from any of the good that people already have, but rather to add meaning to the light they already have in their lives.


Prometheus Unbound

Prometheus Unbound
by Mahonri Stewart
July 17, 18, 19, 20, 22, 25, 26 and 27

Greek mythology comes alive in this unique re-telling of the tale of Prometheus, the Titan who dared defy Zeus and assist humanity. Prometheus' love and sacrifice will move and inspire you and will bring a spiritual resonance you may not expect from the supposedly dusty mythology. One critic said, "Each character is given Stewart's full attention, and each has an important story... the dialogue is a perfect tone, just a bit elevated... but still natural in the actor's mouths. It is also wonderfully witty, with tasteful comic relief to counterbalance the numerous serious themes."

Evening Eucalyptus


Evening Eucalyptus
September 18-28th

At the turn of 20th century, Arthur Stevenson self-exiles himself back to his old home of Australia after a jarring tragedy in his life. There his house keeper Abigail; Pindari, an old aboriginal friend from his childhood; and two itinerant travelers called “swagmen” (although one’s a woman); intersect in a mystical tale of Dreamtime visions, magical trees, old secrets, and deep regrets.

Reviews

  • "The Opposing Wheel is something we don't get on stage very often: high fantasy ... Stewart's script is complex and full of detail ... [if you] enjoy fantasy stories like the narnia books, then the show should be irresistable."
    Russel Warne, Utah Theatre Bloggers Association


  • "There's genuine wit and bite in the dialogue, and the characters are sharply drawn."
    Eric Samuelsen, Irreantum Magazine

  • "Farewell to Eden is brilliant. It's complicated, not very predictable and has a lot of depth and characterization."
    Sharon Haddock, Deseret News


  • "Farewell to Eden is intelligent and extremely well-written. The set was good and the costumes were stunning. The plot line is far from predictable."
    Nan Parkinson McCulloch, Association for Mormon Letters
