A. Chautauqua presentation of Death Valley Scotty
July 8 @ 1:30 pm – 2:30 pm
Tuesday July 8 at 1:30PM at the Carson City Senior Center- A Chautauqua performance of Death Valley Scotty and his benefactor Bessie Johnson. No one is more closely tied to the mysterious lore of Death Valley than Walter Scott. His tales of fabulous gold mines, dangerous desperados and opulent desert castles placed him and Death Valley on the front pages of newspapers for over fifty years…and kept historians endlessly occupied trying to sort out the truth from his tall tales. Death Valley historians David and Gayle Woodruff, assume the characters of the inscrutable, “Death Valley Scotty” and the wife of his benefactor and the real owner of Scotty’s Castle, prim and scrupulous Bessie Johnson, in a 60-minute Chautauqua performance. The program is free and reservations are not required. Call David at 760 920-8061 for more information. CC Senior Center-911 Beverly Dr, Carson City, NV 89706
