Set in the 1840s, The Trail To Oregon! follows the all-American, dysfunctional family as they set off from Independence, Missouri to head west in search of a new life in the greatest place on earth: Oregon! What the clueless pioneers don't count on is that they'll have to face every obstacle imaginable along the way, from snake bites to bandits to dysentery! It's the original cross-country road trip... from hell! Loosely inspired by the popular, retro computer game, 'The Oregon Trail,' this musical spoof features six performers, 13 songs, multiple possible endings, and a heaping helping of audience participation. With the live audience not only naming all the people in the wagon party, but also choosing which family members they'd like to see die, no two performances of “The Trail To Oregon!” will ever be the same.

Third Place Productions is a theatre company created by Evan Jarvis and Ana Tew, aiming to create an open space for theatre students in Central Florida to express themselves. Their goal is to create unique opportunities and introduce lesser-known works (or bring new twists to popular works) to audiences. This includes cabarets, benefit concerts, and fully-produced musicals.

NOTE: The production contains adult language, mature content, gun shot simulation, and religious commentary.

Presented and produced by Third Place Productions, a third-party student-led organization.
