Rodeo

A Musical

Text and lyrics by Lynn Elliott. Music by Marcel Daguerre, Josh Hegg and Michael Bone.


Mrs. Worthmore, a wealthy, widowed New York socialite has entered the world of rodeo, determined to “rescue” her daughter, Harper, who has fallen for a young cowboy. She is accompanied in this effort by the Reverend JJ Busy, her “protector” (also a braggart prone to malapropisms), and Busy’s nephew, Harrison, Harper’s unwilling intended. All soon get caught up in this unfamiliar world, falling victims to a mischievous rodeo clown who delights in mistaken identities.
