New Project in Development

West of Nowhere: A Western Western

Grahame Kent and Amanda Trapp will send you way way way back in time to explore a western western set in Nowheresville, East of the Rockies.

Our Intrepid hero and legend of the West, Bosiah Logan, has been pulled out of his retirement by his stalwart sidekick, niece and actual hero, Annie Blackburn. They travel to the sleepy town of Nowheresville to fend off a devilish energy tycoon who’s set his sights on the town. A joyful and musical lampoon of Western tropes ensues!

A laughing the the aisle Musical Comedy with all new original music!
