Off the Rails (9M, 5W) – Buffalo Bill\u2019s Wild West Show is in town holding auditions, and the regulars at the Stewed Prunes Saloon are hoping for a shot at stardom.

Captain Angelo, the presiding officer, won\u2019t budge . . . until he lays eyes on Momaday\u2019s sister, Isabel. This irreverent, subversive adaptation of Measure for Measure\u2014described as \u201cBlazing Saddlesmeets Shakespeare\u201d and OSF\u2019s first play by a Native American writer\u2014uses healthy doses of humor and music to illuminate the painful legacy of Indian boarding schools in the American West.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
