Make Me A Cowboy

Don B. Bailey (Creator/Co-Playwright)  has been a driving force in making his dream of “Make Me A Cowboy” into a reality. He has definitely grown an affection towards this particular script. He is ever so thankful for the creative team that work so hard and share in his dreams. Sit back, sing-a-long, laugh and enjoy “Make Me A Cowboy - A New Western Musical Comedy”.

Shannon Sturgis (Co-Playwright)  has been fortunate enough to work in nearly every facet of theater.
