Curbside Theater

With the ability to travel to audiences and adaptable to many spaces, Curbside Theater is perfect for viewers who are isolated, restricted, or with accessibility challenges. Please contact us to work something out. It’s part of our mission.

• Is it low risk for cornonavirus transmission? It’s an outdoor performance with ample space for social distancing. All SB Dance personnel are fully vaccinated.
• How does presenting work?  Most organize some kind of  social event and cap off the evening with a performance at dusk.
• Is this okay for kids? Sure. You might think of it like going to a nice restaurant: some youths enjoy it; others just want a kids menu. Please don’t make a reservation for a children’s party.
• What’s a good location? Reasonably level ground, fairly quiet, access for a truck and small trailer, room for the audience to spread out, no obstructions like tree branches, and ideally pretty dark. Cul-de-sacs, green spaces, parks, paved areas like a parking lot are typical. In special cases where vehicle access isn’t possible, we set up a custom platform stage.
• What’s the best time? Around dusk so our stage lighting can elevate the experience.
• What time is dusk? In Salt Lake, it’s approximately 9:15pm on the summer solstice. By late September, it’s closer to 7:30pm. If the location is shaded by mountains, trees, or buildings, it will be dim sooner.
• Is it always the same show? Program A is “All Those Kinds of Love” and Program B is “MicroDose”. We’re working on new shows all the time!
• How can I help get spread the word? Send folks the link to this site, get on Instagram and tag #curbsidetheater. We endeavor to reach vulnerable and under-served populations. Please reach out if you need suggestions or help with coordination.
