Part memory play, part Wild West spectacle, Untitled Calamity Jane Play blurs the lines between history and folklore to get to the heart of a legend. Was Martha Jane Canary a rough and tumble cowgirl? A prostitute with a heart of gold? A generous motherly woman of the West? Or, a hardened criminal who cared for no one? In this non-linear exploration of her life and lies, the truth and the legend of Calamity Jane come face to face to struggle for control of her story. Meanwhile, historians, Wild West legends, and so-called “Pioneers” give their take on the blurry area where myth ends and truth begins.
