ABOUT THE CREATIVE TEAM

MÁIRE NELLIGAN (Props Design) received her degrees in theater eons ago and spent some time directing with HerVoice, a feminist theater troupe in Kent, Ohio. Moving West, she worked with local and semi-professional theaters in Arizona. During the Arizona years, she also spent time as a firewatch and a ranch hand, as well as an adjunct professor at Cochise Community College. After moving to Utah, Máire worked for SLCC’s Fine Arts department before coming to work for The Grand. She loves being the prop master, and generally considers whichever show she’s currently working on to be her favorite. She will admit, however, that the two “most fun ever” were La Cage aux Folles and Spamalot.

HALEE RASMUSSEN (Set Design) received her BFA from the University of Utah’s Performing Arts and Design Program with a double emphasis in technical direction and set design. She is currently the Assistant Technical Director and Scenic Charge Artist for the UofU Department of Theatre, and a resident set designer for The Grand Theatre. Halee feels fortunate to be able to call The Grand Theatre home. Other design credits include UofU Opera Ensemble, Plan B Theatre Company, Salt Lake Acting Company, Salt Lake Shakespeare Company, Alligator Press Productions, and Lagoon Entertainment; with assistant design credits from Idaho Shakespeare Festival, Great Lakes Theatre Company, and Lake Tahoe Shakespeare Festival.

Audio Enhancement Equipment

is available for theatre patrons who are hearing impaired. The concession stand has Comtex wireless personal receivers, which allow a patron to sit anywhere in the theatre and receive high-fidelity audio. Because this is a free service, you will be requested to leave your driver’s license with the cashier until the equipment is returned.

BABIES AND SMALL CHILDREN often make it uncomfortable for other theatre patrons. Therefore, no children under 5 are allowed. Small children must have their own seat.

DISABLED PATRONS may use wheelchair seating areas in the theatre. Each area can accommodate four wheelchair patrons and companion chairs. Ticket prices vary for each section. Aisle seats may be requested by patrons who can be assisted in the transfer from wheelchairs to theatre seats.

BOX OFFICE HOURS are from 12:00 PM to 5:00 PM Monday through Friday and 12:00 PM to 8:00 PM on the night of the performance, including Saturdays.

LATECOMERS will not be seated in their reserved seats until the end of a scene. Latecomers will be seated in available seating that will not disturb punctual theatre patrons.

LOST AND FOUND will be held by the head usher until the end of the performance. Thereafter, please contact the Box Office at 801.957.3322. All items, after a period of 24 hours, will be taken to Administrative Services in Room 1-060. They may be contacted at 801.957.2201.
