Cheryl Rogers, daughter of film, television and rodeo icons Roy Rogers and Dale Evans, returns to the Allen Public Library 7:30 p.m. Friday, May 16, to present a newly released documentary on her parents. Cheryl will also discuss the legendary Roy Roger’s life that for most Americans embodied the spirit of the American West—horsemanship, honesty, courage, and romance.
Viewing this film is a unique opportunity for Allen Public Library patrons because copyright issues require a Roy Rogers family member to be present when shown.
Western Swing band Shoot Low Sheriff will perform Roy Rogers music. Lead by Erik Swanson, this band’s music combines strings, horns and a piano that evoke memories of Texas and the West. For an opening act, local resident Kristyn Harris will perform cowboy and western ballads. Kristyn is the winner of the 2013 Western Music Association Cowboy Swing Album of the Year for her CD “Let Me Ride.”
Free tickets will be issued at 7:00 p.m. The library is located at 300 N. Allen Dr. Call 214-509-4911 for more information.
