Cowboys With Questions @ Washington Ensemble Theatre (Seattle – Capitol Hill)
Cowboys with Questions follows an isolated community that is led by George, a charismatic leader with an uncanny ability to skirt death. Their day-to-day activities and secret rituals are disrupted by the arrival of a cowboy. Inspired by Euripedes’ The Bacchae and modern-day cults, this play is a thought-provoking exploration of human behavior, inviting audiences to question their own desires for community and the boundaries they are willing to cross in its pursuit.
