Baddest. Cowboy. Texas. These are just a few words to describe the Baddest Cowboy in Texas.

But something’s missing.

Join Bangtail as he roots ‘n toots from the mightiest mountains to the sauciest saloons. But what happens when a Badder Cowboy-er Texas-er (AKA his nemesis) rides into town and steals his title?

BANGTAIL is an epic tale of a man in search of his manhood. So saddle up for an hour of unbridled cowboy clown chaos as our hero journeys from the Wild West to the American office.

BANGTAIL marks the first collaboration between award-nominated clown Lil Wenker and award-winning director Cecily Nash to create the perfectly stupid marriage of American and British clowning. The show racked up two award nominations at the Leicester Comedy Festival and sold-out at Pinch of Vaults. The show played a sold-out US tour with stops in New York City, Minneapolis, and Chicago before heading to Peckham and Brighton Fringe Festivals.
