Photo Flash: The Armory Presents THE OREGON TRAIL
You have died of dysentery! For those who grew up playing "The Oregon Trail" computer game, dysentery was serious business. In this fresh and funny retelling of our history, two Janes traverse The Oregon Trail.
"Now Jane" is playing the computer game in 1997; "Then Jane" is in a covered wagon in 1848. A judgey game show narrator, a domineering sister and two oxen try to corral the two Janes. Fate maneuvers them both to a conclusion that changes their lives and sends them to the end of the trail.
