Happy Retirement to Keven Myhre and Toni Byrd
It is with bittersweet feelings that we announce the retirement of two of our core staff, Finance Manager Keven Myhre and Box Office Manager Toni Byrd.
Keven has been at UtahPresents for 10 years, working as the Production Manager, Operations Director, and most recently, Finance Manager. He began his career as a set designer, and has worked as a designer, director, and production manager. During his career he has worked for many, if not all, of the local theatre companies, including Salt Lake Acting Company, The Grand Theatre, Sundance Theatre, Plan-B Theatre, Pioneer Memorial Theatre, Utah Musical Theatre, Egyptian Theatre, and the Babcock Theatre. In 2016, he received the Thomas DeGaetani Award from the United States Institute for Theatre Technology, which honors an outstanding lifetime contribution to the performing arts by an individual or organization.
Toni has been part of the Utah theater community since the 70’s as a student, actor/director and box office employee. She has been at UtahPresents since 2021. Throughout her career, she has worked at many local arts and theatre organizations. As an actress, she has worked on stage for Pioneer Theatre Company, Salt Lake Acting Company and the Grand Theatre. She worked as a director for EttaGrace Black Theater (which she co-founded) and the Grand Theater. Toni worked in the box office at Pioneer Theatre and Salt Lake Acting Company, and as Box Office Manager for the Grand Theatre and UtahPresents/Kingsbury Hall.
UtahPresents is currently accepting applications to fill the role of Finance Manager, and more information will be coming regarding our box office staffing. Please visit our employment page for more information and links to open positions. https://www.utahpresents.org/jobs/
