Six Serpents and a Tarantula

9th – 13th November  (Tues – Sat 7pm, Sat matinee 2.30pm)

Arland Town. Wyoming. The year of our Lord 1888:

“Violence begets violence. Blood begets blood. Thus it always has been, thus it always will be.”

This is the true story of the Woman in Blue, what was done to her, and what she did in revenge. This is a story about tyrants and those who survive them. Told by five brothel girls, the spin of a gun decides who plays who each time, meaning no single performance is the same.

Critically-acclaimed all-female company Old School Players brings us an Old West tale of vengeance and love in a world almost exclusively narrated by men – until now. 

‘A classy production, busting stereotypical Wild West yarns with a more truthful version’ ★★★★★ [London Pub Theatres Magazine]. 

‘This play within a play is truly original work in concept, perspective and in execution’ [Standing Ovation Awards]
