CAOS Musical Society bring the much‑loved classic musical Calamity Jane to life at Lanark Memorial Hall this November!

Join them for a lively and heart‑warming trip to the Old West as Calamity navigates mix‑ups, unexpected romance and her own journey toward discovering who she truly is. 

When she mistakenly brings home Katie Brown instead of the dazzling Adelaide Adams, Deadwood is thrown into a whirl of comedy and charm, the kind of uproar that blows through town quicker than a "Windy City" gust and snaps into place faster than a good old "whip‑crack‑away".

With beloved musical moments including Secret Love, Black Hills of Dakota and The Deadwood Stage, the story builds to a joyful finale filled with warmth and humour. 

Yeehaw!
