Mr and Mrs Wyatt Earp - The Play & Joe Bethancourt - The Music -

Saturday, March 7th at 7:30 pm

The performance features Wyatt Earp (a relative of the historic Wyatt) and Terry Earp in the roles of Wyatt and
Josephine Sarah Marcus Earp. The two-person play flows in and out of time and place as Wyatt speaks to biographer
Stuart N. Lake from their Los Angeles, California apartment in 1928 and Mrs. Earp talks to a feral cat at the
Earp's Vidal cottage in California in 1938 on Roshhashana. The show takes place in Sadie's (Josie's) memory
nine years after Wyatt's death as an elderly Wyatt speaks reluctantly of his time in Tombstone and his life
afterwards, and follows the sometimes turbulent times of the couple's 47-year life together, as they traveled and
prospected throughout the West and Alaska. After Wyatt's death, Sadie (Josie) a charming, controlling woman with
a compulsion for gambling, fights to control and create the legend of her late husband and conceal her past and her
part in the happenings in Tombstone. This is the play Terry and Wyatt were rehearsing when Terry suffered a spinal
cord accident in 2006. Their performance this evening is in part a benefit to help the Earp's with their continuing
medical costs. 

After a short break at the end of the play, Joe Bethancourt takes the stage to once again amaze you with song and
story, accompanying himself on the many stringed instruments he calls his friends, and that play their little hearts
out for him....  His music is an appropriate accompaniment to the evening and the preceding play, as Joe's many
interests include the 'true' West and the people who lived it. 

Doors will open at 6:30pm. $5-$10 sliding scale admission at the door.
