Book-It Repertory Theatre is a leading Northwest theatre company that brings classic and contemporary writing to the stage and converts literary works into theatre.
Performing books instead of plays allows the Book-It theatre experience to spark the audience’s interest in reading and to challenge the audience to participate by using their imaginations.
Sissy Hankshaw is born with enormous thumbs that she uses to best advantage from a young age: she begins a hitchhiking odyssey across the United States. On her adventures to far-flung places, she accumulates a collection of renegade women—cowgirls—who only want their fair share of the myth that is the Wild West. Together they seize a ladies-only spa and transform it into the most rollicking ranch in America, where more than the resident cranes are whooping. Tom Robbins’ 1979 novel was a favorite of the late-1970s counterculture.
