Theater
The Eccles Center is the largest theater in Park City, Utah with 1,269 seats. It is home to Park City Institute's Main Stage Season from October through April each year, presenting a broad range of world-class performing arts from international dance companies to Broadway icons to beloved author/humorists to virtuosos in a host of musical styles from Chamber Music to rock'n'roll.
Health and Safety
The Park City Institute and the Park City School District have taken measures to assure the health and safety of our patrons, staff, and performers. We are constantly adjusting our COVID protocols based on the recommendations of the CDC, directives of local and state health departments. Permanent changes include, updated HVAC, touch-less restrooms faucets, electronic ticketing, electronic programs, enhanced cleaning, and all volunteers and staff to be fully vaccinated. Based on guidance, we adjust the capacity of the theater and reserve empty seats between ticketed groups.
Currently, we are limiting attendance to our main stage series to 50% of the house and ask that all patrons arrive at the theater wearing a mask and keep it on at all times while in the building. Once in the theater, patrons are free to move to the back of the house or the balcony where there is more space between groups. If you don’t feel well, have a cough or a fever we ask that you remain home.

An Evening with Stephanie Land
In January of 2008, I escaped an abusive relationship. Then I moved with my nine-month-old daughter, Mia, into a homeless shelter. In May 2014 I graduated with a bachelor’s degree in English from the University of Montana, gave birth to my second daughter, In 11 months, I accepted an offer from Hachette Books to publish my memoir MAID. It received critical acclaim, made its home on the NYT bestseller list for five weeks, earned a place on President Obama’s Summer Reading List, and has been picked up by Netflix for a series produced by John Wells and Margot Robbie.
