Bucked by a Minotaur

     Suburban Cowboy is at work on a new show.  Just as "The Tragedy of Icarus" was rooted in Greek theatre style and conventions, so is this new as of yet untitled show. It features an actor, lost in a labyrinth that he himself created. Is it a real labyrinth or just a metaphor? Along his journey, the actor seeks help from an oracle who helps the actor figure out who he is so he is able to battle a Minotaur and destroy the labyrinth for good. The show is once again a musical. Songs include "Bring Me Back," "Freud," "Life in the Theatre," "The Architect," "Dionysus," and "Bucked by a Minotaur" which is also the title of the show. An Actual script has not been written yet but the songs are in very good shape. I'm not sure if this is a one man show or will need more actors. I will keep posting new information as it comes.
