Welcome to the Neil Simon Festival

Other Area Performing Arts Organizations

Now preparing for its 10th Anniversary Season, the Neil Simon Festival celebrates the works of America's most popular playwright and his contemporaries.

Each summer, from mid-July to mid-August, in the beautiful Heritage Center Theater in Cedar City, Utah, a professional company of artisans produces comedies in repertory.

In addition, new comedies, chosen from among the entries to our New Play Contest, will receive staged readings.

So come enjoy the incredible natural beauties of Southern Utah's Color Country, and join us in our celebration of America's great comedies.

Come Laugh With Us!
