Take castaway Robinson Crusoe and his friend Friday; add an amorous, lonely gorilla named Lolita; and toss in Ginny and Denise, two lovely kootch dancers, who are pretending to be shipwrecked society ladies. Stir in a double dose of zaniness and confusion, and top-notch music. Mix it all together on a small, uncharted tropical island and you have a recipe for a comical, energetic and entertaining musical adventure! Directed by Pam Carlson, Assistant Director Julie Laube. Tickets at magiccircleplayers.com. Magic Circle Players, 420 S 12th St, Montrose. Box office: 970-249-7838.
