Youth theater takesaim at Wild West Show
YOUNGSTOWN -- Hold your horses! Youngstown Playhouse Youth Theatre will present "Buffalo Bill's Rootin' Tootin' High Falutin' Wild West Show" at 1 p.m. July 24-28 in the Moyer Room. Calamity Jane (Rebecca Worthington) mistakenly sends the show to Youngstown, Mo., instead of Ohio so only Buffalo Bill (Bret VanDerMark) and Annie Oakley (Jackie Whitmore) and Calamity Jane are in town to entertain the city slickers with sharp shooting and recreating a stagecoach robbery.
Tickets are $5 for adults and $4 for children; group rates are available. The show is for those 5 years and older. For reservations and more information, call the box office at (330) 788-8739.
The western show is the first in the youth theater's "Small Fry" season that will feature "The Legend of Sleepy Hollow" in October, "The Cinderella Brunch" in December, "Jane Eyre" in February and "Beatrix Potter Presents Peter Rabbit" in April. The youth theater's main stage season includes "The Adventures of Strega Nona," "A Christmas Carol," "The Giver" and "Walt Disney's Jungle Book."
