November thru December 15 CStock Theater “Annie Get Your Gun” Annie Oakley iis the best shot around, and manages to support her little brother and sisters by selling the game she hunts. When she’s discovered

by Col. Buffalo Bill, he persuades her to join his Wild West Show as a sharpshooter. She meets handsome Frank Butler and falls in love with him - although he clearly states he wants a more feminine type. Annie may be a sharpshooter, but she isn’t sharp where men are concerned. She soon eclipses Butler as the main attraction which, while good for business is bad for romance. cstock.org

Community Events Calendar December 13 & 14 Bremerton Community Theatre BCTjr is proud to present A Seussified Christmas Carol for the 2013 holiday season. This whimsical reinvention of Dickens’ most beloved Christmas story starring the mean Mr. Scrooge is written in wacky rhymed couplets. With zoot fruited juices and binka bird geese, from Bed-Headed Fred to Timmy Loo Hoo, this tale of glorious holiday cheer is similar to something Dr. Seuss might have come up with -- if he ever had his way with the story...

(A Seussified Christmas Carol is not affiliated, endorsed, or sponsored by Dr. Seuss Enterprises!)

Performances are December 13th and 14th at 7PM, and December 14th and 15th at 2:30PM. Auditions for A Seussified Christmas Carol will be held at Bremerton Community Theatre from 6:309PM on November 3rd and 4th. Children ages 6-18 are encouraged to participate; you do not need to prepare a monologue or song, and you do not need to attend both auditions. Questions?
