Nevada Public Radio once again gives listeners the unique opportunity to participate in its annual summer excursions to well-known theatre destinations in Utah-Tuacahn Amphitheatre, Utah Shakespeare Festival and Neil Simon Festival. Reservations are being accepted and limited space is available.

The first planned trip of the summer takes participants to Tuacahn Amphitheatre, today, June 28 and 29, where they will stay overnight at the Abbey Inn in St. George. Guests will see three musical productions - "Mary Poppins," "Disney's Mulan" and Andrew Lloyd Weber's "Starlight Express." Guests will also have the opportunity to enjoy Tuacahn's Saturday Market. Reservations for this trip must be made by May 29.

On July 26 and 27, Nevada Public Radio takes guests to Cedar City, Utah for the Utah Shakespeare Festival. Guests will stay overnight at the Abbey Inn and will see four productions - "Anything Goes," "King John," a choice of "Peter and the Starcatcher" or "The Tempest" and a choice of "Twelve Angry Men" or "Love's Labour's Lost." Reservations for this trip must be made by June 25.

The final excursion of the summer will be at the Neil Simon Festival, August 9-10, also in Cedar City, Utah. Guests will stay overnight at the Abbey Inn and will see four productions - "The Sunshine Boys," "45 Seconds From Broadway," "Song-Poems Wanted!," and "Lost in Yonkers." Reservations for this trip must be made by July 8.

Per person prices for the summer theatre excursions range from $225-$315 (double occupancy) and $275-$365 (single occupancy). Price includes show tickets, private coach transportation and hotel accommodations. For each trip, a boxed lunch will be provided on Friday in route to the destination, and breakfast is provided on Saturday morning.

Limited space is available for each excursion. The private coach departs from and returns to Nevada Public Radio, 1289 S. Torrey Pines Dr., Las Vegas, Nevada.

For all excursions, to allow guests the opportunity to see as many shows as possible and bear only the cost of one overnight, the private coach will likely return to Nevada Public Radio at midnight or after on Saturday/Sunday.

Proceeds from all theatre excursions will directly benefit and must be purchased through Nevada Public Radio.
