Calamity Jane

November 2016
Written By: Charles K. Freeman
Directed By: Susan Nanning-Sorenson
Performed in: The Diane Ballweg Theatre, The Stream

This musical Western is adapted from the celebrated stage-play and film. ‘Calam’ dresses like a man, totes a gun and drives the Deadwood City stagecoach. Well-meaning, but disaster-prone, she tries to help the local saloon proprietor out of a jam by promising to fetch a music-hall star from Chicago. A hilarious comedy, it nevertheless has many tender moments and some very famous numbers, including Secret Love, Black Hills of Dakota, Deadwood Stage and Windy City.
