Saturday 28th March
7:30 & 9:30pm (Doors 7:15 & 9:15)
The Play starts at the listed time with a runtime of 65 minutes, latecomers may not be able to be admitted. (I know what its like for wharf shows but I promise you we have to start on time to fit in both runs)
The debut of the brand new play 'I'd Rather Be A Cowgirl' written by Lewis Fraser & Leah Hand and Them There Cowboys!
The Ballad of Red Wednesday & Duck Williams, outlaws on the run searching for the myth of Halcyon. Asking that all important question: “Is being a cowgirl all it’s cracked up to be?” A tale of gender exploration, found family, and surviving in the harsh world of the American West.
Join Red Wednesday, Duck Williams, and the musicians of Them There Cowboys round the campfire for a queer tale of adventure, found family, and exploring who you really want to be. Duck Williams is a runaway who doesn’t ever want to look back, Red Wednesday’s a mysterious and striking cowgirl who’s feared across the West, and holds her cards close to her chest. Duck is questing for the mythical town of Halcyon… if they can find it, and if it even exists at all… Red takes Duck under her wing, but is Duck just grateful for her help and companionship, or is there a deeper affinity with the idea of being a cowgirl, and embracing what they had been forced to repress?
Interwoven with the musical storytelling and Queer Cuntry Stylings of Them There Cowboys. A story to warm your heart but make your hair stand on end, as you’re swept along for the ride of your life in wide open plains.
