SHANE
A stranger. A standoff. A fight for what’s right.
When a quiet gunslinger rides into a Wyoming frontier town, folks take notice—especially young Bob Starrett, whose settler family welcomes the mysterious stranger into their home and life. But Shane’s presence stirs up more than curiosity; it kicks up a storm between a ruthless rancher and the settlers and Native families holding their ground. As lines get drawn and bullets threaten to fly, Shane must choose between the peaceful life he longs for and the violent past he thought he’d left behind. Reimagined for the stage by acclaimed playwright Karen Zacarías (Native Gardens), Shane is a gripping new take on an American legend—a powerful story of honor, sacrifice, and the courage to stand tall for what’s right.
