a World Premiere by Jeff Daniels
June 19, 2008 – September 27, 2008
Featuring six original songs, this “play with music” tells the fateful tale of a prairie showdown between a vagrant outlaw and a singing cowboy. Thrown together by unfortunate circumstances, Panhandle Slim and The Oklahoma Kid argue the virtues of mayhem, music and the meaning of life.

PRESS QUOTES
“… a cowboy story with plenty of laughs, but also with moments that are touchingly tender and thoughtful.”
-Detroit Monitor
“Working economically and with a richness of character reminiscent of short stories by Elmore Leonard, Daniels fashions a play that is at once moving and bizarrely funny.”
-Detroit Free Press
