Derryl Yeager | Odyssey Dance Theatre's Thriller

Every fall in Utah, Thriller by Odyssey Dance Theatre proves why it’s the Halloween tradition you just can’t skip. From the moment the zombies stumble into the aisles to the tap-dancing skeletons and the bride of Frankenstein twirling with her monster, the show mixes jaw-dropping dance with laugh-out-loud humor. One of the biggest crowd favorites? The Jasons, three masked madmen who storm the stage with chainsaws and machetes in a routine that has the entire audience cracking up. It’s that perfect blend of spooky and silly, scary and hysterical, that makes Thriller unlike anything else on stage. In this episode, we sit down with Derryl Yeager, Founder and Artistic Director of Odyssey Dance Theatre, to hear the behind-the-scenes story of how Thriller came to life, why it’s become such a beloved tradition, and what keeps audiences coming back year after year. Whether you watch it at the Grand Theatre, the Egyptian in Park City, or outdoors at Tuacahn, it’s an unforgettable night. If you’ve never been, trust us: grab friends, make a memory, and go. T
