Tuacahn, Performing arts center in St. George, Utah, United States.
Tuacahn is an outdoor amphitheater with roughly 1,900 seats nestled against towering red sandstone cliffs that create a natural stage backdrop. The venue uses the surrounding desert rock formations as a dramatic frame for all performances.
The center opened in 1995 with productions focused on Utah pioneer history before shifting toward Broadway musicals in 1999. This evolution reflected growing demand for diverse theatrical entertainment in the region.
The venue hosts diverse productions each year that draw audiences from across the region. It serves as a gathering place where visitors and locals experience live performances in an outdoor setting shaped by the desert landscape.
The amphitheater has some shaded seating under structures, but many seats remain exposed to direct sun during afternoon shows. Bring sunscreen, water, and layers for cooler evenings, as desert temperatures drop quickly once the sun sets.
A separate indoor theater with 330 seats allows performances during winter and bad weather, extending the season beyond outdoor limitations. This companion venue means the center can host productions throughout the year without weather interruptions.
