“Montana Tales & Other Bad Ass Business” by Troy Evans will present an intimate portrait of one actor’s storied career from Montana to Hollywood. For one night only, Troy Evans will perform a show to benefit Entertainment Management at The University of Montana (UMEM).
 
Born in Missoula, Montana, actor Troy Evans’ career spans 40 years in theatre, 50 movies, and 400 TV episodes.  In this performance, Troy tells how his experience as an Infantryman in Viet Nam, a bar owner in Montana, and an inmate of both Montana State Prison and the VA Mental Hospital in Sheridan, Wyoming have shaped and colored his career. His vivid portraits of folks he has met along this rough road make this "autobiography told by ghosts" a sensational, funny and touching evening.
 
“Montana Tales & Other Bad Ass Business” by Troy Evans will be performed in the Masquer Theatre in the Performing Arts and Radio-Television (PART) building on campus in Missoula, Montana. Doors will open at 6 PM on Sunday, April 22, 2012 with curtain at 7 PM.
