Campers are invited for two days of dance fun!

The Pirates & The Sea
The students at Body Stories Dance invite you to their end of season performance of The Pirates & The Sea. Saturday May 25, 6:30pm at Manitoulin Secondary School.
When a band of pirates seek revenge on a past comrade by invading his ship, they unintentionally anger the spirits of the sea. These spirits decide to create a magic storm which pulls the pirates to the bottom of the ocean and sends them on a quest (hopefully) back to the surface. Will they make back to shore or be destined to spend their days with the crabs, starfish and octopi?
Tickets are $10 and free for children 12 and under. Seats can be bought/reserved online or purchased at the door (cash only).
