COWBOY BABY

Sue Heap’s award-winning and best-selling wild west story for children has now been brought to life by Catfoot.

adapted and directed for the stage by David Longford
designed by Stephen Jon
presented in partnership with Walker Books

Suitable for children aged 7 and under and their families.

Following a successful pilot tour in summer 2011, including Lowdham Book Festival and Buxton Fringe, Cowboy Baby is now available for touring September 2012 onwards, following performances at the Edinburgh Fringe.

It’s time for bed in the Wild West, but Cowboy Baby ain’t tired. No sirree! There’s still loads of time to play with Texas Ted, Denver Dog and Hank the Horse. If only Cowboy Baby can find ‘em before Sheriff Pa finds him first.

“Perfect … just right for all young cowboys and cowgirls.” Buxton Fringe Review
“A really lovely play for families – highly recommended” Jane Streeter, Co-ordinator Lowdham Book Festival
“In terms of energy and sheer entertainment it was fantastic. I don’t believe anyone who comes to see it won’t leave smiling!”
Sarah Kerry, Nottingham Academy

“A brilliant show” Children’s author Helena Pielichaty

Cowboy Baby is not only a terrific western yarn for children but also a beautiful story about love and friendship. So expect howlin’ coyotes, twirlin’ lassos, prickly cacti, plus songs and puppetry around the ol’ campfire.
