Life and Death in Cowboy Country
By: Andrew Tyrell-Smith
Directed by Bonnie Dolan
The dates for performances will be: 6/6 2 PM and 6/7 8 PM
When a bounty hunter's quarry is only mortally wounded rather than outright killed, it gives the hunter an opportunity to talk to a dead man.
Blurb: Dos, a bounty hunter, shoots his quarry, Uno. Dos reflects upon the nature of killing and the "toll on the soul" it may or may not take. He thinks about the other men he's killed. Then, he realizes that Uno isn't quite dead yet. The two share a polite conversation, given the circumstances, until Dos takes the opportunity to ask the killed-but-not-dead Uno about what dying is like. Uno responds, after some prompting, that he's thinking about his daughters, and his horse, and how he wanted a better life for himself and his girls. He realizes that they probably didn't want all that though: they'd give it all up if he just came back. Uno dies. Dos searches for something to say for a long time; he never finds it.
