2026 Utah Midsummer Renaissance Faire
Presented by Utah Midsummer Renaissance Faire at Main Street Park - Cedar City Cedar City, UT
During the medieval times, vendors brought their wares, along with their families, in wooden carts the base of the city’s walls for Festival Days. They set up a temporary shelter where their families slept, ate and played. Guildsmen worked at their crafts whenever business was light, and everyone sold hard, shouting their wares at passersby. Festival days were a joyous gathering of people, a bustling social event, full of color, music, laughter, and endless commotion. The festival known as the Utah Midsummer Renaissance Faire, follows this tradition and has been a long-standing festival of fun, excitement, and great memories for over 40 years. People continue to gather from around the world to Cedar City, Utah to be a part of these festivities every Summer. We invite you to come and be a part of our wonderful world! Come take a look at our magnificent Renaissance history and lifestyle that surrounds these festive traditions.

Mister Lincoln by Herbert Mitgang
Presented by American Crossroads Theatre (formerly Simonfest Theatre Company) at Festival Hall and Heritage Theater - Cedar City Cedar City, UT
"Eloquent" was how the Washington Star described the production at Ford's Theatre in Washington, the place where Lincoln was assassinated. When the play reached Broadway, the N.Y. Times called it "human and humane." This is Lincoln's life and mind from the moment he stepped on the public stage, during his youth and maturity in Illinois as an advocate, to the momentous years he spent in Washington as the great emancipator during the Civil War. The events and ideas are rooted in historical records and new discoveries by the playwright about Lincoln the man, the husband, the wartime commander in chief, the president—with special emphasis on Lincoln's own brilliant language. By the conclusion of the play, the audience has discovered the inner life of the human, humorous, and often troubled president's personal and public self. The Lincoln who emerges in this show is no country bumpkin but a wise and often shrewd man of both velvet and steel.

Come From Away
Presented by American Crossroads Theatre (formerly Simonfest Theatre Company) at Festival Hall and Heritage Theater - Cedar City Cedar City, UT
Come From Away is a critically acclaimed musical accompanied by a deeply moving score. The show has earned global success with 37 award nominations, 13 of which resulted in wins, most notably Best New Musical at the 2019 Olivier Awards and Outstanding Musical at the 2017 Drama Desk Awards. The show’s global presence resonates across all audiences as an uplifting reminder of humanity’s ability to come together, no matter what the circumstances. Come From Away is based on the true story of the time when the isolated community of Gander, Newfoundland, played host to the world. What started as an average day in a small town turned into an international sleepover, when 38 planes, carrying thousands of people from around the globe, were diverted to Gander’s airstrip on September 11, 2001. Undaunted by culture clashes and language barriers, the people of Gander cheered the stranded travelers with music, an open bar and the recognition that we’re all part of a global family. Come From Away is presented through special arrangement with Music Theatre International (MTI). All authorized performance materials are also supplied by MTI. www.mtishows.com This calendar listing is brought to you by NowPlayingUtah.com, Utah's one-stop, online website for arts and entertainment events, powered by the Utah Cultural Alliance.

Inside: Conditions of Care by Samantha Killinen
Presented by St. George Museum of Art at St. George Museum of Art Saint George, UT
We are proud to present "Inside: Conditions of Care," featuring the work of Utah artist Samantha Killinen. Killinen is no stranger to the southern Utah art community. Her work was featured in the 2025 Statewide Annual, hosted at the Southern Utah Museum of Art — and it drew visitors from across the state to Cedar City. Her ability to connect with audiences, locally and beyond, speaks for itself. We are thrilled that her debut solo exhibition has found its home in St. George. This newest body of work grew from something personal: direct experience working inside the prison system. The works are soft in material and feeling — a deliberate choice for a subject that is usually anything but. This is not an exhibition about solutions. It is an examination of contradiction: what it looks like when compassion and control exist in the same space, when comfort and confinement are part of the same daily reality. Most of us will never see the inside of a correctional facility. These works open that door, not to shock, but to humanize. They sit with complicated identities, messy histories, and situations that don't have clean endings. Throughout the gallery, you will find words from incarcerated individuals who worked closely with the artist. We hope you will read them carefully, and carry them with you as you move through the space.

Between Symbols and Stories: A Mid-Career Retrospective by Megan Knobloch Geilman
Presented by St. George Museum of Art at St. George Museum of Art Saint George, UT
Megan Knobloch Geilman splits her time between Utah and Southern California — and St. George is the natural meeting point between her two worlds. We are honored to be hosting her first solo exhibition here at the St. George Museum of Art. Geilman's work has been celebrated across the state, shown at the Springville Museum of Art, the Church History Museum, and galleries throughout Utah, earning prestigious recognitions and a purchase award along the way. Her digital compositions draw from centuries of visual tradition: the scales of judgment, the mourning posture of a pietà, the veiled face of a queen. Geilman gathers these symbols and places them in new contexts, weaving in Egyptian funerary rites, Dutch Golden Age painting, Japanese kintsugi, and more — asking what familiar images carry, what they hide, and what they might still have left to say. Each work takes months, sometimes years, to complete. The stories she reaches for are specific: the history, doctrine, and social questions related to The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints. By placing these narratives alongside other visual and cultural traditions, meaning travels across time and heritage, each thread enriching the ones beside it. This exhibition is also a milestone — a first look back at a body of work still very much in progress, moving with patience and rigor. To move through it is to follow a conversation Geilman is always having with the history of art. Each label includes one of the many art historical references woven…
