This show has the all classic Bill Bailey elements, trademark musical mashups, multi-lingual riffs, films, songs, philosophizing and silliness on a grand scale. Plus one amazing owl. 20

Annie Get Your Gun tells the true story of Annie Oakley, who is the best shot around, and she manages to support her little brother and sisters by selling the game she hunts. When she’s discovered by Col. Buffalo Bill, he persuades this novel sharpshooter to join his Wild West Show. It only takes one glance for her to fall head over heels for shooting ace Frank Butler, who headlines the show. She soon eclipses Butler as the main attraction which, while good for business, is bad for romance. Butler hightails it off to join a rival show, his bruised male ego leading the way, but is ultimately pitted against Annie in a final shoot-out. The rousing, sure-fire finale hits the mark every time in a testament to the power of female ingenuity. This famous musical is full of toe tapping tunes such as Anything You Can Do I Can Do Better, Doin’ What Comes Naturally, They Say It’s Wonderful and of course, the anthem to show business There’s No Business Like Show Business. It is perfect family entertainment, presented in the usual spectacular Toads style. An evening not to be missed.
