A CURATED CALENDAR FOR THE CURIOUS SLC EXPLORER
See full event listings at The Blocks Arts District
Stephen Brown’s SB Dance has been presenting quirky, fantastical, and steamy stories through dance for nearly 30 years. During the pandemic, Mr. Brown did something only a wildly creative entrepreneurial creative could do– he brought the performance to your door step as Curbside Theater. The successful venture opened up his choreography and artform for people of all ages and backgrounds, bringing neighbors together, and keeping artists paid. Hats Off, Sir!
Tonight, see this avant-garde, provocative, and whimsical dance troupe for free, under the stars on top of the Pierpont Garage. (Just climb the stairs up, performance starts at 8:15.)
Grab your broomstick and fly into Abravanel Hall as the Utah Symphony performs John Williams’ score for Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets. The spellbinding story comes to life in this cinematic concert experience. (Tickets start at $35, Thurs-Saturday.)
Opa! The largest Greek Festival west of the Mississippi starts today! This longstanding tradition is known for wonderful food, spectacular dancing and performances, and tons of activities for the kids. Don’t forget to get a guided tour of the gorgeous Cathedral and see the museum of Greek history in Utah. ($5, through Sunday).
Last year the Trash Panda Drum Group’s performance at Steppin on Eccles was a highlight of the summer. Their youthful brash energy is truly infectious. Check out a wildly creative performance with joyous sounds drifting down Main Street, for free! (Starts at 8:00pm)
