13 Days to Halloween Tuacahn - Thriller in St George

This is an evening you will enjoy with dancing music and all your Halloween Creatures. But it would be best to leave the little kids at home.

October 22, 24 - 29, 2011, 7:30 PM
October 31, 2011, 8:00 PM MST

If Odyssey Dance Theatre's "Thriller" isn't part of your yearly Halloween tradition, it should be. The spooky spectacular combines technical aspects of dance while paying homage to the stars of All Hallows' Eve.

Throughout the two-hour program, "Thriller" highlights all the heroes of the season, including Frankenstein's monster and his bride, skeletons, mummies and werewolves. But among the ghouls, you'll find other unlikely heroes of Halloween, such as Bubbles the Clown and the "Giggle Girl," who sings and maniacally laughs her way through songs such as "I Saw Mommy Killing Santa Claus."

Critics agree that Odyssey Dance Theatre is nothing short of spectacular:

"Compelling dance performed to perfection! Young, trim, slim, and athletic...Great fun!" --The Spectrum

"Odyssey's "Thriller"..a delightful "Dance Macabre"....As for humor, there were bucket loads. Laughs abounded during a "Romeo & Juliet" inspired "Frankenstein & Frankenstein" and "Jason Jam," a work that used a lot of percussive dancing, a la "Stomp", that spotlighted three "Friday the 13th" villains dancing with ice picks, machetes and, of all things, chain saws. The whole idea was cool..." Scott Iwasaki, Deseret News.

15 Days to Halloween in Utah - Ogden and Salt Lake City Ghost Tours/Story Tours

Have you ever wondered if your town is haunted? Or where to find out... This will be an adventure to either make you a believer or prove it wrong. See it for yourself!!!

    The award winning Ogden and Salt Lake City Ghost Tours was founded by storyteller Kristen Clay in 2002.  Impressed by Utah's rich culture and history, Kristen set out to study it's stories.  As she began interviewing the merchants and residents of Northern Utah, she came across the usual tales of pioneers, immigrants, hardships and survival, but was surprised to hear many bizarre and interesting ghost stories among them.

    On your Ghost tour, you will experience a small sampling of these "local legends" gathered during the research of several storytellers.  Some might even tell you they have gotten to know the ghosts personally.... You will embark upon an exciting adventure through Utah's past and back into the present to discover characters who just can't seem to leave this valley, even many years after their deaths.  

    We do not attempt to prove the existence of ghosts or to explain the paranormal; you will decide whether to believe - or not.  We intend to expand your imagination and present you with a fun evening of rich storytelling and maybe a chill or two.  We hope your experience will inspire you to seek out your own stories and share them.
