How the West Was Fun -- The Musical
by James L Seay, Ed Puras
Synopsis
"I Been on the Trail Too Long" says it all.
Curley and Lobo stop by Ms. Claire du Loon's dance hall to unwind over one of her famous sarsaparillas.
Curley is head over heels in love with Miss Lilly, pretty and pert school teacher turned dance hall girl.
He's going to need some real magic, though, to get her disengaged from Sergeant Terwilliger - so who should appear but rascally Dr. Samuel Sasquatch and his assistant, Princess Grinning Fox.
They offer the poor, love-struck Curley a genuine, certified love potion and, being desperate, Curley says, "Jes' Name Yer Price!" It's a steep price - but he'll sacrifice even his horse because "Love's a Potent Potion."
Soon, all the dance hall girls are in love with Curley!
A great show, filled with action, romance, and wild west comedy!
