SFCC Presents How I Became A Pirate

Additional Information

Members of the State Fair Community College Theatre and Music Arts programs will present the children’s musical “How I Became a Pirate” Nov. 18-22 for area elementary students and at 2 p.m. Nov. 23 for the public in the Stauffacher Theatre on the Sedalia campus.

Jeremy Jacobs’ talent for building sand castles earns him an invitation to join the crew of Braid Beard’s ship. Living the high life at sea, Jeremy trades manners for mayhem as he rolls in stolen treasure, sings sea chanteys and practices pirate talk with his new friends. It’s a grand adventure until Jeremy gets homesick for bedtime stories, goodnight kisses and soccer practice. Can he convince the pirates to take him home?

The show is suitable for young audiences.
