The Pickleville Playhouse is a musical theater on the banks of Bear Lake in Garden City, Utah, United States. LeGrande and Betty Larsen founded the Playhouse following their vision of creating a family-friendly theater that would serve as a place to bring generations together.
When the Larsens moved to Driggs, Idaho where LeGrande began his practice as a physician, they discovered an old melodrama theater, "Pierre's Playhouse", in nearby Victor, Idaho. After moving to Logan, Utah in 1976, the Larsens built their own melodrama theater.[1]
The Pickleville Playhouse was named for the town in which it once resided, Pickelville. Shortly after the construction of the Playhouse, the town Pickelville was annexed as part of Garden City.[1]
