Written by Sam Shepard and Patti Smith, Cowboy Mouth is an essentially autobiographical work about their affair. The show was the premier production of The Freeks, kicking off an exploration of the underbelly of theater. Cowboy Mouth was presented in the Kairos, a Coop on campus. Audience members entered what is known as the Pool Room in Kairos to find Slim (played by Evie Fitzgerald) and Cavale (played by Maia Kazin) already occupying the space.
