The Trial of the Arkansas Bear
7 Male, 2 Female
William Glennon from Albert Bigelow Paine Price: $8.25
Bo, a recent runaway, meets Horatio, a talking,
fiddle-playing bear, just after they have raided
Farmer Zack’s gardens
The local sheriff heeds the call of Farmer Zack and is stunned when he finds Horatio can talk
But his sworn duty to uphold the law compels him to cart Horatio away to jail—and to court
There, everyone is surprised to learn that Horatio is himself a runaway — from a traveling circus owned by the unsavory Jack Olsen
Olsen makes a sudden courtroom appearance to claim his star entertainer, and the bedlam that ensues turns Judge Lee’s courtroom into a circus
All ends well, as Judge Lee makes a wise decision that will surprise and delight the audience
Inspired by Albert Bigelow Paine’s book The
Arkansaw Bear A Tale of Fanciful Adventure
