"Cowboy Versus Samurai"


Cowboy Versus Samurai
Michael Golamco

Chuck Lacson
A delightfully entertaining, laugh-out-loud funny, and altogether sweet Cowboy Versus Samurai by Michael Golamco, is now receiving a staging at Pear Theatre.  Four twenty-somethings are all in search of their true identities; and their journeys’ bumpy routes are full of racial, personal, and relationship uncertainties and biases to be confronted with no bypasses ultimately allowed.  For us as an audience and fellow travelers, we are able to enjoy at their expense the trials and tribulations they so dramatically encounter while rooting from our darkened seats for happy endings in what we hope in the finale is in fact a romantic comedy -- and not a tragedy.  

For my full review, please proceed to Talkin' Broadway: https://www.talkinbroadway.com/page/regional/sanjose/sj117.html.

Rating: 3.5 E

Cowboy Versus Samurai continues through April 8, 2018 at Pear Theatre, 1110 LaAvenida, Mountain View.  Tickets are available at www.thepear.org or by calling 650-254-1148.
