Cowboy Mouth

ensemble theatre · j.bothwell productions · Ages 16+ · United States of America

Written by Sam Shepherd and Patti Smith, “Cowboy Mouth” is an intimate and salacious look into the lives of leads, Slim and Cavale, two artists that are coming to terms with a dream deferred. Set in 1970, together, Sam and Cavale hole up in a small motel room, feeding off each other’s artistic desires and deep insecurities. Living in lust and a constant state of unrest, these two characters battle with difficult decisions, emotional and mental stability, and ultimately, discovering what truly fuels and defines them. Wrought by symbolism and abstract theories, “Cowboy Mouth” showcases the adverse effects of the American Dream.
