Summer Series
August 20, 2024
“The Tale of Two Cousins” presented by Basin Lake Theatre Project

This engaging and entertaining presentation brings to life the rich tapestry of Family History in America’s Old West. Written in the style of Old-Time American Melodramas, Revival Sermons, Ghost Stories, and Shakespeare, it captures the good, the bad, and the ugly. With the guidance of their distant ancestor, Rev. Robert Jordan, this portrayal tells the story of Arizona’s first Territorial Governor, John Goodwin, and his distant cousin, Richard “Dick” Broadwell of the infamous Dalton Gang bank robbers.
