About
The Utah Shakespeare Festival presents Hamlet at the Engelstad Shakespeare Theatre in Cedar City, UT, running from June 19 through September 4, 2026. This production explores Shakespeare's exploration of mortality, madness, and revenge through the story of a Danish prince tormented by his father's ghost and caught between action and inaction. The festival's traditional staging offers a direct encounter with one of Shakespeare's most psychologically complex characters.
