The Cheyenne Gunslingers have been performing Old West-style melodramas in Cheyenne since 1983. They are now kicking off their 2025 season as Cheyenne Frontier Days begins this year.

At the same time, the city of Cheyenne is considering relocating them once again to make way for the 15th Street Railcar Experience. The group of volunteers opposes this move, but feel they have little leverage as the city owns the land they perform on and the city’s governing body moves forward with the railcar project.

This week on Wyoming Watch, Noah Zahn spoke with Roger "Lucky" Barnes, the chief marshal of the Gunslingers, and Pamela "Trixie" Schliske, another Gunslinger.

Throughout the summer, the Wyoming Arts Council has helped organize “Tunes on the Trail,” a program bringing local musicians to perform unplugged sets in Wyoming’s natural and historic areas.

Next Friday, it’ll be coming to Laramie County at Curt Gowdy State Park.

This week on Wyoming Watch, arts and entertainment reporter Taylor Staples spoke with Bonamo, the Cheyenne-based band who will be performing. They're an acoustic trio made up of Kevin Ramler, Joe Evans and Steve Scott who plays folk, bluegrass and blues music.
