About Pioneer Theatre Company

Pioneer Theatre Company offers a wide range of exceptional theatre that explores the breadth of the human experience - challenging the intellect, stirring emotions, igniting imaginations and encouraging conversation.

Salt Lake's major regional theatre is located appropriately enough at the top of Broadway (300 South) and 1400 East. A fully professional theatre in residence at the University of Utah, Pioneer Theatre Company produces a seven-play season running from September through May, including a mixture of classics, large-scale musicals and contemporary dramas and comedies. Over the past ten years the theatre has developed a reputation for Broadway-quality productions, including mounting Utah premieres as well as regional theatre premieres. Notably, Pioneer Theatre Company was the first regional theatre in the country to earn the rights to produce Les Misérables, the closing musical of the 2006-2007 season. Running for a record 82 sold out performances, Les Misérables cemented PTC's reputation as a theatre capable of producing large scale, difficult productions. The 2007-2008 season features a World Premiere of the revised Paint Your Wagon, and the Utah Premiere of both Doubt and The Vertical Hour.

Previously, Pioneer Theatre Company has performed major musicals such as Chicago, Into the Woods, Man of La Mancha, Cabaret and Ragtime as well as classics and adaptations like Othello, Pride and Prejudice, The Three Musketeers, A Tale of Two Cities and The Grapes of Wrath. The theatre has also been the first in Utah to produce important works by contemporary playwrights such as August Wilson's Fences, Tom Stoppard's Arcadia, David Auburn's Proof and Wendy Wasserstein's An American Daughter.

Single ticket prices for the current season range from $21 to $49, with the best seats in the 932 seat house on the main floor and in the loge. Showtimes are: Monday - Thursday evenings at 7:30 p.m., Friday and Saturday evenings at 8:00 p.m., and Saturday matinees at 2:00 p.m. Parking is free and available in adjacent parking lots.
