Calamity Jane The Musical

Saddle up for a rootin’-tootin’ musical adventure in the Wild West!

In the rowdy gold-mining town of Deadwood, no one’s tougher, wilder or more fearless than Calamity Jane—except maybe the sharp-shooting Wild Bill Hickok. When a hilarious mix-up threatens the reputation of the local saloon-theatre, Calamity takes matters into her own hands. Off she rides to Chicago, determined to bring back the glamorous stage star Adelaide Adams to wow the crowds of Deadwood.

But in true Calamity style, things don’t go quite to plan… Instead of Adelaide, she unknowingly returns with the star’s timid maid, Katie Brown. When the truth comes out, Calamity must convince the sceptical townsfolk to give Katie a shot on stage. Against all odds, Katie blossoms—and captures the attention of every man in town, including Lt. Danny Gilmartin, the very man Calamity secretly loves.

As Katie helps Calamity discover her softer side, the rough-and-ready frontierswoman undergoes a dazzling transformation at the Fort ball. But when she realises that Danny’s heart belongs to Katie, Calamity has a revelation of her own, perhaps her true match is the one man who’s been challenging her all along: Wild Bill.

Packed with rip-roaring comedy, heartfelt romance, and timeless tunes like The Black Hills of Dakota and Secret Love, Calamity Jane is a whip-crackin’ musical treat guaranteed to lift your spirits and leave you humming all the way home.
