Description

Join us at the Gala Grand Opening production of Bards of The Big Sky for the Helena Avenue Theatre, home of the Montana Playwrights Network. AFTER PURCHASING TICKETS, PLEASE CALL OR TEXT TO CONFIRM YOUR SEAT: 406-235-0353. Bards of the Big Sky presents original plays by Montana playwrights, featuring Cynthia Webb's "Driver's Ed", a short play that examines that parenting dilemma: which is scarier, teaching a teenager to drive or answering teenage sex questions...; Pamela Jamruszka Mencher's "Montana Fish Story" explores what might happen when fishermen come into conflict on the banks of blue ribbon trout waters, the Missouri River; and Jay Kettering's "Flotsam, Jetsam & Bill". In this dark comedy, we find Bill, a middle-aged man, on the banks of the Blackfoot River whose plans are interrupted by a young stranger singing a familiar tune. The production also features original music by Bozeman actor and musician, John Hosking. Material is appropriate for audiences 12 and up.
