Summary

Beaver Tales was an original Beaver Island production of songs, poems, and anecdotes about island life and history. The Community Center advertised a September 4 performance and a final October 2 show; the September performance was reported as sold out.

Evidence limits

The forum provides venue promotion and a reported sellout, while the Beacon confirms the production’s place in the October program. Neither source supplies a complete cast list, ticket ledger, or attendance count.
