Play it Again, Sam
“You gotta be like a rock-and-roll Jesus with a cowboy mouth."
Girl Got Lost Productions presents Cowboy Mouth, a thinly-veiled autobiographical play written in 1971 by Sam Shepard with Patti Smith over the course of several sleepless nights. Performed only once with Smith and Shepard in the starring roles, this relevant-as-ever one-act play explores the ambivalence of the American Dream and the cost of fame, incorporating music, clowns and taxidermy.
