World Premiere Of BOTH EYES OPEN: THE ANNIE OAKLEY STORY Comes To LNT

Maura O'Brien (Always, Patsy Cline, Becoming Dr Ruth) stars as the one and only Annie Oakley (preeminent horsewoman and sharp-shooter) in the world premiere of this new play by international award-winning Vermont playwright, Jeanne Beckwith.

Beckwith cracks open the legend to reveal the real lady and her fascinating life.

Full of humor, heart-break, sharp wits, and white-knuckled determination, Oakley sets the record straight. Defying death more than once, this Little Sure Shot's determination saw her from the poor farm to dining with Queens and Kings, blazing her own path all the while. And she always shot with both eyes open.
