Wild Bill! An Evening with James Butler Hickok is coming to Pontiac Saturday and Sunday at the Eagle Performing Arts and Conference Center.

The one-man show, performed by Walt Willey of daytime television fame, is coming to the stage to tell the story of Wild Bill, who Willey has researched for years and portrayed him on several different levels, from television specials to stage.

“This man was a farmer, a teamster, a scout, a spy, a sheriff, a marshal, a gambler, a gunman – he was the first media-generated celebrity,” Willey said.
