Web site moved to a new server after the previous hosting company went out of business. Links to the Guestbook and News Article sections now point to utahtheaters.info. Some general clean-up. The Photo and Advertisement sections will follow. Eventually all villatheatre.com content may be merged into utahtheaters.info, to reduce expenses. |
