About the event
SHANE by Jack Schaefer Adapted and directed by Artistic Associate Mark Pracht [https://www.citylit.org/shows/46-s](https://www.citylit.org/shows/46-s)
World Premiere Adaptation of the classic Western
Shane, a mysterious stranger, shows up at the Starrett homestead in the Wyoming Territory in 1889. Though he seems to be hiding a dangerous past, he’s offered a job as a farm hand and settles in with the Starretts: Joe, his wife Marian, and his son Bob, our narrator. When Joe refuses to sell his land to open range rancher Fletcher, it sets up a deadly showdown that alters the fates of everyone involved.
