Stories from this Episode
BYU International Folk Dance Ensemble
Tour the world of music, dance and culture as the BYU International Folk Dance Ensemble twosteps into another country's shoes with vibrant costumes, exciting choreography, and a live bluegrass band, using dance as an interactive way to celebrate heritage and learn more about different cultures around the world.
Jazz Legend Joe McQueen
Known locally as the “King of Swing,” saxophone player Joe McQueen took the bus from Oklahoma to Ogden’s 25th Street back in 1945 and instantly connected with the local jazz community. What was initially meant to be a two-week stint turned into a lifelong commitment for Joe and his wife Thelma, who have called Utah home for the past 74 years.

Since the early 1990s, Mimi has helped producers big and small find their dream locations right here in Utah.
