Back this summer due to incredible demand! An alternative comedy mash-up from The Wardrobe Theatre, makers of MDH: Puppets Do A Movie, Little Women In Black, Drac & Jill, Oedipuss In Boots, Reservoir Mogs, Rocky Shock Horror, Goldilock, Stock & Three Smoking Bears and more!


Can you smell the fresh gunpowder? Can you hear the thunder of horses? Can you taste the cheap beer? This is the untamed, lawless frontier – a parched landscape of bloody violence, passionate romance and line-dancing, where the heroes are good, the villains are bad and the guy you slept with last night is so ugly you’d rather gnaw your own arm off than wake him. This is the Wild West…

“A breathless two hours made fabulously raucous by four actors milking every absurd moment.”
★★★★★ Stage Talk Magazine

“The campest, naughtiest show in town, a work that embraces the spirit of the fringe and the alternative comedy scene and produces a rollicking night.”
★★★★ Kris Hallett

“An unmissable joy – the best-known secret in Bristol continues to be the gift that keeps on giving.”
★★★★ The Fix
