"Calamity!" - A Raucous Two Person Wild West Show - Hits Boulder


Calamity Jane was a legend in her own time…and now she’s back!

Calamity!
is a raucous two-person Wild West Show with music. It brings Deadwood’s gender-bending heroine, Calamity Jane, to Boulder … for three weeks only!

With biting humor, sexual ambiguity and heart-breaking truth, Calamity! recreates an American myth… in all her glory, and all her dissipation. It stars Ethelyn Friend, last seen in the Theaterworks production of Wit, as Calamity Jane and Micha Frayne as her musician. Calamity! is directed by Stephen Wangh, co-author of The Laramie Project and director of last season’s acclaimed Naropa production of Our Town.

Starting October 29th, and running for three weekends only -- through November 15th at the Rock 'n Soul Cafe

* Thursday, October 29th, Saturday 31st and Sunday, Nov. 1st
* Thursday Nov. 5th and Sunday Nov. 8th
