Cowboy Mouth

"Gloriously vibrant, but also achingly vulnerable… The show is a thrilling 50 minutes of theatre" - Theatre Red

"Zoe and Hayden whip up an engrossing storm of semi-poetic musings mixed with fierce grappling and chaotic outings on electric guitars" - Limelight

Overview

Cowboy Mouth by Sam Shepard & Patti Smith

Conceived on a typewriter in the chaotic infamy of New York’s Chelsea Hotel, Cowboy Mouth, is an urban fable about a woman who kidnaps a young man at gunpoint, taking him hostage from his wife and child to make him a pop prophet, ''like a rock-and-roll Jesus with a cowboy mouth.” Cowboy Mouth is an exhilarating and poetic gunfight of a play crafted as a cautionary tale about using art as deliverance from our flaws and relating to someone’s potential instead of who they are.
