Saddle up for a rowdy, heart‑filled ride into the Wild West with this bold revival celebrating the legendary Calamity Jane. Set in the rough‑and‑tumble town of Deadwood, the story follows the sharp‑shooting, sharp‑tongued Calamity—feared, mocked and admired in equal measure—as her tough exterior cracks to reveal unexpected vulnerability.

Cabaret powerhouse Naomi Price storms the stage in a stripped‑back, piano‑fuelled reimagining of the classic musical, packed with grit, humour and frontier spirit. This immersive saloon‑style experience invites audiences to pull up a stool, join the posse, and become part of the action as Calamity’s story unfolds around them.

Featuring beloved songs like Secret Love and The Black Hills of Dakota, this is not the polished Wild West of old—it’s raw, cheeky, and full of heart.
