The Lost Penguins are coming.

And Dancing Camels.

Then there's the Sailors of the Seven Seas, a donkey and goat, the CaveofWonders, Sinbad the Sailor, four genies, the princess and the sultan.

Oh — and Aladdin, of course.

Because there can't be a performance of"Aladdin" without him.

"This follows 101Arabian Nights more closely than Disney," KalinHonaker,who joined MCT in January, told the young actors.

This week, two actors/directors with the Missoula Children's Theatre pulled into Baker City for a week-long theatre camp.

Forty-eight youth from age 6 to 18 showed up for auditions on Monday and will dedicate their week to the theatre.

Auditions are held in a group setting, with the leaders paying close attention to how the youngstersperform simple acts,such as reciting their name and age.

"And you're to say it like it's the most exciting thing in the world," said Hannah Rable, who has been with MCT for 18 months.

Some of the tasks were a bit more complicated, like this tonguetwister You remember Sinbad the Sailor who sailed the seven seas with his sailors? Whew!

Best-selling author Craig Johnson is coming back to Baker City for a discussion and signing of"Dry Bones," the latest book in his acclaimed Walt Longmire series.

The author event will be at 7 p.m. Tuesday at Crossroads Carnegie Art Center, 2020Auburn Ave. in Baker City.

Social time will start at

6:30 p.m.

Johnson is the author of eight novels in the Walt Longmire mystery series, which has garneredpopular and critical acclaim.

The series isthebasisforthe hit A&E drama"Longmire," starring Robert Taylor, Lou Diamond Phillips and Katee Sackoff.

Johnson lives in Ucross, Wyo., population 25.

"Dry Bones" synopsis:

Kathy Orr/Goi magazine

Addie Flanagan gives her version of the phrase: "Dad, don't make me take out the garbage! It's stinky!" during auditions on Monday. The young actors will give two performances for the public — at 6 p.m. Friday and at 3 p.m. Saturday.

That's a mouthful!"

After a full week of rehearsals, the young actors will give two performances for the public — 6 p.m.

Friday and 3 p.m. Saturday.

Both will be at the Baker High School auditorium, 2500 E St. in Baker City.

Admission is $5, or free for children younger than 12 who accompany a paid adult.

Crossroads Carnegie Art Center helps bring MCT to Baker City with the help of donations, grants and ticket salesto the performances.

When Jen, the largest, most complete Tyrannosaurus rex skeleton is discovered in Absaroka County, Wyoming, it appears to be a windfall for the Big Horn Mountain Dinosaur Museum until Danny Lone Elk, the Cheyenne rancher on whose property it'sdiscovered,isfound dead with no eyes, floating face down in a turtle pond.

With millions of dollars at stake, Danny's family claims her, the tribe claims her and the federal government claims her.

As Wyoming's acting deputy attorney and a cadre of FBI officers descend on the town, turning what should be a local matter into a political charade, Sheriff Walt Longmire is determined to ind outwho would benefitfrom f Danny's death.

The robbery, of course, is all tongue and cheek. Saloon girls hand out fake money and jewelry when riders get on the train.

"Comedy is what it is," Scoubes sard.

The back story for the robbery goes like this, he said.

"Stella Rose is the mother of a large family of not-so law abiding kids," Scoubes said."The sherifF has captured Stella Rose up in the Minam country and is transporting her to prison. The sherifFgoes on the train with Stella as his prisoner, walking though all the cars as Stella, a rough old gal, tries to get away.

Just before the train takes ofF, cowboy riders wearing masks come riding up along the train and threaten the sherifF. When the train leaves the yard, these guys trailer up their horses and drive to Lookingglass, about 20 miles downstream along the Grande Ronde River, Scoubes said.
