Un estudio reciente del Fondo Nacional de las Artes reveló que Utah tiene la cifra más alta de concurrencia a espectáculos de artes escénicas per cápita en todo el país. El Teatro George S. y Dolores Doré Eccles de Salt Lake City es una celebración de la persistente creatividad, la comunidad y la belleza natural de la ciudad. En el teatro, teatro de 2500 localidades, se presentan espectáculos de Broadway en gira, conciertos y producciones artísticas regionales. El recinto cuenta también con un teatro de caja negra flexible de 250 butacas, una vibrante sede para presentaciones artísticas locales y eventos comunitarios.

Nace un próspero distrito de artes
El Teatro Eccles es la pieza central del proyecto de renovación del centro de Salt Lake City. Se suma a una impresionante variedad de salas de espectáculos para conformar un nuevo distrito de artes que vincula a City Creek, un concurrido distrito comercial, con Plaza Gallivan, una importante plaza cívica. Desde Main Street, la fachada transparente del Eccles Theatre permite ver a los espectadores reunidos en los coloridos balcones y en el Tin Angel Café, lo cual genera la percepción de elevar el umbral entre la calle y el vestíbulo. Después del espectáculo, los visitantes pueden recorrer las instalaciones de arte público que se exhiben en el vestíbulo, pasear por la Plaza McCarthy, ubicada en el extremo sur del teatro, y caminar hacia los restaurantes y bares vecinos.

“El proyecto del Teatro Eccles y Regent Street es un claro ejemplo de lo que puede surgir de agencias municipales, regionales y estatales —entidades privadas y públicas—trabajando mancomunadamente. El resultado de esta colaboración es ahora una de las piezas primordiales de nuestro vibrante centro urbano, y la disfrutan todos aquellos que viven, trabajan y visitan Salt Lake City.” — Jackie Biskupski, Ex Alcaldesa de Salt Lake City
