Boston. 1867.  On the edge of the New World. Charles, a disgraced Englishman, is on the brink of making some alarming discoveries.

New play that captures the spirit of the Wild West and the suspense of a murder mystery.

An unforgettable cast of characters. Brilliant ensemble performances. A sell-out smash at the Edinburgh Fringe Festival 2003, this is wonderfully evocative new writing.

"Fantastic... Ben Woolf is so talented I want to slap him."
