Festsaltlake Stages program at the Rose Wagner
Two weekends of cabaret, dance, and images
Cabaret
January 24 Kinky Beast Cabaret We all have our kinks, right? This evening features the extraordinary artistry, performance, and design of the local kink scene. Allure, fun, fantasy, and a model of expressing what you want and how to get it in a consensual, caring relationship. Sponsored by Utah Leather Pride and Black Garter. All genders and orientations welcome. For newbies, pros, and everyone in-between. Dress in costume or come as you are. Click on this video for a better idea.

January 25-26 The Only Two Places in the World
a projection show of work by Paul Christean and John Brandon, Salt Lake natives and friends interested in photography since they went to high school together over 50 years ago. The title refers to the saying that there are only two places in the world—onstage and off. Mr. Christean’s work is gritty street photography, captured with startling precision and objectiveness. Mr. Brandon shoots live dance—movement in performance, totally unposed—that feels spontaneous and personal, like being there. Through some alchemy of opposites, their vastly different approaches and subject matter consolidates into poignant theater.

Dance
Jan 31 and Feb 1 SB Dance’s Sleeping Beauty
CITY WEEKLY BEST OF UTAH 2019
Using minimalist set design and costuming, a dance company would have to rely on an outrageously talented troupe to tell a story with precision and creativity. With SB’s version of Sleeping Beauty, the production could get away with a bare stage and dancers in straitjackets and their interpretation would still be the best one ever. Through an adventurous entanglement of dance and theater, SB’s unconventional fairytale is far from any virtuous version with a clever assemblage of innovative artists. When it returns in January 2020, don’t waste any time getting tickets as they will quickly sell out.
