Historical NoteReturn to Top

The Utah Theatre Association (UTA) was formed by a group of theatre educators. They intended to create a forum where high school theatre students could meet with college and university representatives, and learn about their programs, audition for acceptance to programs, and scholarships. Today, the conference has expanded and includes workshops covering all aspects of theatre, such as design, playwriting, acting, directing, stage combat, and stage management. Harold R. Oaks, the donor of this collection, was a founding member and president of the UTA.
