SYNOPSIS
In this western melodrama, there are many interwoven plots and a plethora (yes I used the word plethora) of characters for your school, community or church production. Lots of temptations, trap doors, teetotalers and territorial tooth gnawing. Get out your saloon dresses and cowboy jeans, it's Gunsmoke, only without a good script. With three heroines, you can't go wrong.
