Lark Sparky, the lighthouse keeper’s daughter, dreams of a life of adventure. Will she embrace the affection of local dairyman Clark Barker? Or will she fall for the suave but shady investor, Lester Holstein? Throughout the program, audiences will enjoy coastal-themed music and dance numbers presented by the variety show ensemble. Since 1976, the Bandon Playhouse has provided the best in community theater, from classic musicals to premiere works by new playwrights.
