SALT LAKE ACTING COMPANY EXTENDS RUN OF ‘SATURDAY’S VOYEUR 2012 : THE MORMON MOMENT’

The people of Utah have spoken! Our audiences are calling Saturday’s Voyeur 2012 “The best Voyeur yet!” Due to the overwhelming response from the 11,000 people who have already seen Saturday’s Voyeur 2012, the production is still in high demand and selling out fast. Originally set to close September 2, Salt Lake Acting Company is thrilled to extend the summer hit one more week. It will now close September 9, 2012.

What people are saying: “I have been coming to this show for 20 years and this is by far my favorite!” “ The quality of this production is one of the best.” “I have never laughed this hard.” “Brilliant!” “This show is one of the best things about living in Utah.”

SATURDAY’s VOYEUR 2012 comes to you live from downtown SLC. Our Protagonist, Bud ‘Moroni’ Rasmussen narrates his wild fever dream that begins on the pivotal night of Obama’s inauguration in 2009. We are taken through the levels of the Church Office Building, experiencing all the hubbub leading up to 2012- Mitt Romney’s Presidential Nomination, the unveiling of City Creek, and Trax making its way ta’ the airport! We are taken on a journey beneath Main Street to discover the secrets that dwell in the tunnels that connect downtown’s Church Campus. Through magical means of conveyance we meet our favorite local celebs and take a humorous look at the nation’s fascination with the LDS Church.

SATURDAY’S VOYEUR runs Wednesdays through Sundays thru September 9 at SLAC and is recommended for mature audiences.
