St. John’s Drama this November: Annie Get Your Gun

Join St. John’s Drama this November for their bang-up production of Annie Get Your Gun, Irving Berlin’s musical spectacular that celebrates the legendary sure-shot Annie Oakley.

Loosely based on the true story of Annie Oakley, Annie Get Your Gun follows America’s greatest female sharp shooter on her journey from backwoods hunter, to the star of Buffalo Bill’s Wild West Show. However, Annie’s rise to fame is not without price, and while replacing dashing shooting ace Frank Butler as the star attraction is good for business, romance is another story.

With show-stopping numbers including “I Got the Sun in the Morning,” and “Anything You Can Do I Can Do Better,” Irving Berlin’s greatest theatrical achievement will have the entire family understanding why “There’s No Business Like Show Business.”

Six Performances will be held at the Skyline High School Theatre, 151 Skyline Vista Drive, Front Royal, VA 22630.

Evening performances: Friday, November 10, Saturday, November 11, Friday, November 17 and Saturday, November 18 at 7:30 pm;

Matinee performances: Sunday, November 12 and Sunday November 19 at 3:00 pm. Ticket prices are $8.00 for adults and $5.00 for children (3 and up), students and seniors (65 and over). The Sunday matinee special is a maximum of $35.00 per family (parents and minor children only, please).

Tickets will be available at the door on the day of the performance. For further information, please email naccash@hotmail.com or visit our website at http://stjohnsdramaclub.wix.com/stjohnsdramaclub.

The St. John’s Drama Club has been in operation since the fall of 2008.  It was organized by home schooling parents with theatrical backgrounds that saw a need in their community for drama education among their students.  Although the specific need was seen among home schooled students, the Drama Club is open to and includes home schooled, public schooled, and private schooled students.  The Drama Club is a ministry of St. John the Baptist Cathoic Church in Front Royal, Va and part of the St. John’s Youth Group.
