NAATCO (National Asian American Theatre Co.) Presents the World Premiere of Cowboy v. Samurai by Michael GolamcoCowboy v. Samurai is a contemporary retelling of Cyrano de Bergerac set in the mythic American West. When a beautiful Asian American woman moves to Breakneck, Wyoming, everyone's in love - the samurai who doesn't know who he is, the cowboy with the chew and blue jeans, and especially our Cyrano, an Asian American hero who doesn't stand a chance. In this lyric romantic comedy from one of Asian America's most exciting young playwrights, love letters are sealed and bound, horses set ablaze and the history of railroads deconstructed. Cowboy v. Samurai makes the problems of race as plain as the nose on your face. Directed by: Lloyd Suh With: Timothy Davis Joel de la Fuente* C.S. Lee* Hana Moon* *Actors appearing courtesy of Actors Equity Association. Set: Sarah Lambert Previews: November 4 - 6 For show times and ticket information: Rattlestick Theater |
