FRAN LEBOWITZ

Eccles Center for Performing Arts
Park City, UT

1750 Kearns Blvd.
Feb. 47:30pm

Fran Lebowitz, the satirist who has made a career out of being an acerbic observer of life as we know it, delivers a humorous evening of New Yorker-tinged cultural commentary.

1750 Kearns Blvd.

The return of Montreal-based Cirque Éloize to the Eccles Center means classic cirque arts magic: theatrics, dance, acrobatics, live music, and a little clowning. This time it’s coupled with ten-gallon hats and quick-on-the-draw humor. The troupe’s newest show “Saloon” delivers a head-turning spin on the wild west – with fiery fiddle bows and somersaulting gunslingers, pushing the physics of the human body and the stage space. Part of the Park City Institute's Main Stage season.
