Take the Stage 2025 Event Image

JULY 8th - JULY 11th

Join us for the 2025 *Take the Stage* Youth Theatre Event, a fun-filled theater camp led by Heather Brinkerhoff Westenskow from July 8–11 at the Wayne County Community Center in Bicknell!

Kids will sing, dance, and perform songs from Broadway musicals while learning stage skills, vocal techniques, and choreography—including jazz square, grapevine, hip-hop, and stomp. Each day starts with energizing warmups and theater games, followed by opportunities for solos, group harmonies, and team-building fun. It’s the perfect way for young performers to grow, shine, and celebrate the joy of working together on stage!

The Entrada Institute construction is coming along quickly! The trusses are up, the roof is on, the windows are now in, and the siding is ready to install. Soon you will find yourself listening to music on the deck, finding your seat for a presentation or walking through an arts exhibition. There is still time to be part of the "Legacy." You can make a contribution toward the completion by making a small donation or sponsoring something like: $100 venue chair (need 100), $500 set deck table/chairs (need 6-8), $1,000 toward acoustics package install, $5,000 toward theatrical lighting/video equipment, $10,000 to complete the sound booth or guest room accommodations (need 3). Thank you for championing the effort together! www.entradainstitute.org/give/ ... See MoreSee Less

“The Entrada Institute is the brainchild of thoughtful, generous, visionary people. Entrada fosters life-affirming interconnections between nature and the arts reminiscent of Friedrich Schelling’s nature is visible spirit, spirit is invisible nature.”

– Scott Abbott, Ph.D

“I see firsthand the value it provides to the community, its residents, and visitors from all corners of the world. Entrada contributes to increasing our appreciation of the natural world and its inhabitants. It also provides a fascinating slate of programs and classes that are open to all. Entrada adds immeasurably to the fabric of this area and deserves our support.”

– Annie Holt, co-owner of The Old House at Center and Main in Torrey

“There are cliff and buttes, mountains and mesas, canyons and valleys, domes and pinnacles, rounded slopes and numberless smaller forms, all painted in a rainbow spectrum of glorious hues, sculptured into … patterns that astonish with strange and endless diversity.”

– Ward Roylance, co-founder, Entrada Institute

“What impressed me about Entrada was honoring and celebrating both our natural and cultural legacies at the local level and along the Colorado Plateau. The Entrada Institute helps protect and preserve the heritage of Wayne County, State of Utah, and Colorado Plateau. Entrada, you are the role model for the future.”

– Rosemary Sucec, Cultural Anthropologist, National Park Service
