Ready Steady Yeti Go is a timely play about race, love, and how to move forward when, in the face of tragedy, that's all there is to do.

Wasatch Theatre Company brings the timely play READY STEADY YETI GO! By David Jacobi to The Box at The Gateway, 124 South 400 West as part of their 22nd season. In the aftermath of a hate crime, Junior High pariah Goon befriends one of the victims, Carly, the only black girl in school. While the town plans a rally "to destroy racism forever," a youthful romance blossoms and the two must navigate the pitfalls of falling in love while dealing with the town's prying eyes, especially those of Wikipedia Jones, the crime-solving son of the Chief of Police. Passive-aggressive antics, bad parental advice, and ill-informed gestures of kindness create a "White Guilt Perfect Storm" that threatens to make the course of true love a rocky road indeed. The cast includes Trinidad Allen as Carly, Michael Davies as Goon, Sterling Shane Allen as Gandry, Savannah Moffat as Katie, and TJ Hunter as Barry.  Tristan B. Johnson directs. There will also be a performance February 9 as part of the Edward Lewis Festival. Wasatch Theatre Company is a local theatre organization that has been in operation since 1997.  The group has performed at venues such as delis and coffee shops before spending the last ten years at The Rose Wagner performing Arts Building in downtown Salt Lake.  WTC is now the resident theatre company of The Gateway and is housed at the new performing arts space The Box.
