COWBOIS

Cowbois’ is a big queer cowboy show full of everything you’d expect from a western, but our lone ranger is a gender outlaw who fights the patriarchy and inspires a queer revolution.

After a brilliant run at The RSC we transferred to London’s Royal Court . I’m forever grateful to both venues for hosting us so well.
