NBHS Drama to present ‘The Rest of the West’

The North Butler High School Drama Department will present “The Rest of the West” on Saturday, November 12 at 7 p.m., and on Sunday, November 13 at 2 p.m. in the North Butler Elementary auditorium in Allison. Admission will be $5 for adults and $3 for students in kindergarten through 12th grade. Cyanide Gulch, the fourteenth-wildest town in the West, is riled up on the day of the Big Shootin’ Contest, which awards the Red Ryder ‘73 BB gun of the late great Six-Gun Schmidt to the best shot in town.
Nearly everyone is vying for the prize, including Annabelle Oates (Addyson Clark), a waitress at Sugar Shepherd’s (Shayna Engelhardt) Sassy-parilla Shack; and Double Aces McElroy (Owen Landers), who is behind bars because he cheated in a game of Uno with Mayor Jeff Jeffries (Isaac Trees).
The only person who isn’t interested in the gun is Schmidt’s own son, Jasper (Clay Shultz), who would rather put on plays for the bored townspeople.
