Longhorns, Time Warp this week
Enid's quarterly Calendar of Events available here October, November & December
This week's Enid events calendar features an up-close view of some of the top Longhorn cattle in the nation, the final week for one of the most critically acclaimed works dealing with World War I and a shadow cast performing during the showing of a cult classic. All this and much more when you visit Enid this week.
ITLA Longhorn Show
See Vipor Dragon (pictured) and over 100 of his closest friends at the 28th annual International Texas Longhorn Association Championship, held for the first time in Enid at the Chisholm Trail Expo Center beginning Wednesday and running through Saturday.
The three-ring all cattle event will include the ITLA Futurity, halter and non halter judged shows, educational profit seminars, live music by the Parker-Dowling orchestra, the Elite Heifer Sale, the International All-Star Futurity, General Membership Meeting, Directors Meetings, Miss ITLYA Pageant, banquet with great food, committee meetings and pleasant times to visit with like-minded cattle folks.
All events will be judged by ITLA approved judges. The uniqueness of Texas Longhorn cattle with their many points of special identity demands judges who have owned, buy, sell and regularly involve themselves with the industry.
All events are free of charge, giving you this unique opportunity to see these magnificent animals up close.
Journey's End
RC Sherriff's ground-breaking play "Journey's End" remains one of the most powerful and successful pieces of modern drama and one of the most acclaimed examples of literature that deals with the tragedy and horror of conflict. Gaslight Theatre's two-week run of "Journey's End" concludes Thursday-Saturday. Set over the course of four days leading up to a massive German attack on the British trenches in 1917, Journey's End charts the tension and claustrophobia as the new recruit to the company, Lieutenant Raleigh, discovers that Captain Stanhope, his former childhood friend and hero, has changed almost beyond recognition. Tickets range fro $8 to $15 and are available at GaslightTheatre.org, at the Gaslight box office or by calling 580.234.2307.
Rocky Horror Shadow Cast
Enid's Gaslight Theatre invites you to Do the Time Warp at Midnight on Friday night as they present Enid's first shadow cast of the Rocky Horror Picture Show. The shadow cast production is a “cult” tradition that has been going on for over 30 years around the world. The Gaslight actors will be in character, acting out the movie while the original film is playing. There will also be a showing at 9 pm on Halloween night. Tickets for this one-of-a-kind experience are $20 and can be purchased at GaslightTheatre.org, the Gaslight box office or by calling 580.234.2307.
Enjoy some of the best chili in the region on Friday during the United Way Chili Cookoff at the CNB Center, crafters will enjoy the outdoor Fall Fest Craft Show on Saturday at The Breeze on East Maple, wear your best costume to the CNB Center's Costumes and Cocktails party on Saturday night, and business women will want to mark their calendars for Thursday as inventor Jody Harris is the speaker for the quarterly Women in Business luncheon "Negotiating 1.1." Plus, don't forget Enid's haunted house, Nightmare Warehouse, is open Thursday-Saturday nights through November 2-3. Enter if you dare!
