The True Story of Annie Oakley
A Great One Act Just for Kids, Children and Families!

At last! Here's a play for young audiences about the real Annie Oakley straight from the horse's mouth! Born in the poverty of rural Ohio, this young woman aimed for success and became the most famous woman in the world! Through grit and determination she achieved her dreams and became one of America's proudest heroines!

Great Monologues for Women, Female Performers!

Able to shoot better than any man of her day, Annie's talent stunned and delighted the thousands that thronged to Buffalo Bill's Wild West Show! In Europe she was lauded by kings and queens. At home she dazzled President Cleveland and the dignified warrior chief Sitting Bull. Annie Oakley takes you and your audience on a wild, fast-paced spree through an exciting chapter in American history!

 


 
"Aim at a high mark and you will hit it. No, not the first time nor the second and maybe not the third. But keep on shooting for only practice will make you perfect. Finally, you'll hit the bull's eye of success."

-- Annie Oakley


Audience Participation!
Great for School Tours!


"As Annie's grandniece I have seen her portrayed as a little waif who owed her celebrity to men. Your play was different, entertaining and historically accurate."
Bess Edwards, President, Annie Oakley Foundation

Annie Oakley has been performed nearly a hundred times on school tour with the professional Theatre IV. It has been proudly presented by The Annie Oakley Foundation at Annie's childhood home in Greenville Ohio.

Annie Oakley is a great tie-in to American History, Women's Studies, Native American History.

Great One Act Play for Middle Schools and High Schools!
The script can be easily adapted for a large cast!

"Kathryn Schultz Miller's work really transcends the form of plays for young audiences. The body of her work speaks to the human spirit. Her ability to find theatrical forms that hold the precious stuff of ideas together is quite remarkable."
Steven Anderson, Artistic Director, Phoenix Theatre of Columbus, OH
