Pirates to invade Encampment

The Grand Encampment Opera Company is taking audiences on a trip to the stormy Caribbean Sea this year.

For 2014’s melodrama, held in conjunction with the Encampment/Riverside Woodchopper’s Jamboree, the opera company is showcasing a pirate-themed production titled “Pyro’s of the Caribbean or Our Ship Doesn’t Stink” by M.K. O’Roark. The company will kick off the performance at 7 p.m. on Wednesday, and hold two more performances at 7 p.m. Friday and Saturday.

All performances take place at the Grand Encampment Opera House, 622 Rankin Ave. in Encampment, and admission is by donation at the door....
