#musical #improv #sketch #theinstitutiontheater #austin The Wild, Wild West: where men could run around and do as they pleased with their scratching and spitting and guns and "guns", if you catch our meeting. There was one group of women who rose above that rabble of testosterone, the sharp-shooting women of Buffalo Bill’s Wild West. No show, however was big enough to contain the talents of Annie Oakley, Calamity Jane, May Lillie and Lillian Smith who would soon step out from under Bill's shadow and thumb to strike out on their own. Soundtracking this (Sasha) Fierce journey of self-empowerment will be the work of Queen Bey, Yoncé, Beyoncé, as we explore who run the world?! Girls! Written by Courtney Hopkin.
