Enter her fairy godmother, who provides a ticket to the royal ball. The girl meets Prince Charming and they fall in love.

THE SHARDS OF AN HONOR CODE JUNKIE
UC College-Conservatory of Music Musical Theatre

Church of Our Saviour/La Iglesia de Neustro Salvadore [Clifton]

World premiere staged performance
Conceived, composed and written by Blake Allen

The Shards of an Honor Code Junkie is an autobiographical story of a young homosexual Mormon man who embarks on a journey of self-love and acceptance while challenging Brigham Young University’s staunch eight Honor Code Rules. This contemporary musical celebrates the love-tenants that are part of the Mormon faith, while confronting some of the less-supportive aspect of student culture at the University. CCM Musical Theatre has been working closely with writer/composer Blake Allen to bring his 2021 chart-topping concept album to life on stage for the first time. In the words Blake Allen: “I hope that the story of Shards…can help those in dark corners to feel loved and find some light.” Please be aware that this production contains themes of drug usage, emotional abuse & its aftermath, suicide, non-consensual physical intimacy, eating disorders, religion.

Free, reservations required.

PRIDE AND PREJUDICE Runs Oct. 2-4

PRIDE AND PREJUDICE
UC College-Conservatory of Music
Oct. 2-4
Patricia Corbett Theatre [University Heights]

Directed by Susan Fielder

Marriage is an inevitable fact of life for the five Bennet sisters — Jane, Elizabeth, Mary, Kitty, and Lydia. With the family estate passing to their closest male cousin, their only hope to advance in life is to find a rich and single man — and one has just arrived in the form of the very handsome and very well-off Charles Bingley. The kindhearted and beautiful Jane seems poised to make a match, but must contend with her overly zealous mother, his snobbish sister and a slippery social ladder. When Bingley’s taciturn friend Fitzwilliam Darcy shows an interest in the opinionated and spirited Elizabeth, the situation becomes more complicated than either of them expect. The fire and wit of Jane Austen’s classic 1813 romance shines through in this vibrant new adaptation.
