Utah Symphony - The Empire Strikes Back - Thursday Edition
2019-09-05 17:00 - 18:45 (America/Denver) | Abravanel Hall, 123 West South Temple, SLC, 84101, United States
The Utah Symphony is playing the music of Star Wars: The Empire Strikes Back with the movie playing on the screen above them. These are wildly popular performances and Lucas Film Limited has requested that we provide troopers for this performance.
As we have learned in the previous performance of Star Wars: A New Hope, we will be in the lobby and outside, interacting with guests as they arrive. We need to leave the lobby by 6:45 pm so guests can get seated as the performance starts at 7:00 pm. We will need spotters to help guests line up for pictures and cut them off when it approaches 6:45 pm.
As these events also are on the same days as FanX and our FanX dinner, please schedule your time wisely. We will need costumed characters are both locations.
There will be a secure changing location at the Symphony or you can walk over from FanX, if you are already kitted up. This is an official LFL event, so LFL rules apply. No costume modifications.
