Uneasily settled in a cold mountain enclave, a band of Frontierswomen wait for varmints to hie out of their small town of Wish Key. Surviving on grit, root soup and dreams, the characters tell of, encounter and create unheard legends of the West. DEADLY NIGHTSHADE is a new play in development by Candyce Rusk. Music by Tyler Mabry and directed by Lily Wolff.

Starring: Lana Dieterich (Pluto Moon), Katy Taylor (Unplain Jane), Leng Wong (Madame Tea Cloud), Sarah Danko (Abigael Norcross) and Crystal Bird Caviel (Mamie Claxton).

This project is supported in part by the Cultural Arts Division of the City of Austin Economic Development Department and ScriptWorks, Christie Moore, Executive Artistic Director.
