Tumbleweeds, Tom Ryan’s cheerfully irreverent look at the ’Old West,’ is the popular comic strip in hundreds of newspapers. Here it is adapted as a lively musical bursting with wonderful music, lively lyrics and hilarious jokes. Tumbleweeds gets its name from the likeable cowpoke who tries his best to be an optimist. It ain’t easy because he lives in the wretched town of Grimy Gulch which is populated by such bizarre characters as Hildegard Hamhocker, who’s always on the lookout for a husband (any husband as long as it’s Tumbleweeds), Judge Frump (who gives everyone a fair and impartial conviction), Colonel Fluster of Fort Ridiculous (he’s lost his troops) and a tribe of eccentric Indians called the Poohawks.
