URBAN COWBOY DescriptionUrban Cowboy is based on the hit Paramount film of the same name, which starred John Travolta and Debra Winger. It's the story of Bud, a new breed of cowboy who's turnin' heads and lookin' for love in the biggest honkeytonk in the world. But can he raise the roof, get the girl and ride the bull, all before last call? This completely revised musical is filled with hits by Clint Black, the Charlie Daniels Band, Dixie Chicks, Travis Tritt, Shania Twain, Willie Nelson, Waylon Jennings, and Anne Murray. We predict you’ll be hootin’ and a hollerin’ and perhaps croonin’ your own country tune on the ride home, whether by bull or just your average mustang. It’s a line dancin’, fine-romancin’, heart-breakin’, boot-scootin’, raw-hidin’, bull-ridin’, good time.
Press"Sissy is played by the beautiful Noel Molinelli... We immediately found ourselves falling in love with Molinelli’s portrayal of this local tough girl.” “The stylish, heartfelt country sound of the leads…almost make us forget the original recordings… Anchoring the cast are Daniel Damon Joyce and Noel Molinelli as Bud and Sissy, the star crossed lovers played memorably in the movie by John Travolta and Debra Winger... Miss Molinelli’s Sissy is as prickly as a cactus yet suggests a deep-down vulnerability.” “Once again, the Gateway has assembled a first-rate cast and given it top flight production value… Daniel Damon Joyce is a tall and engaging Bud…who falls for the feisty Houston cowgirl,Sissy, played with a carload of grit and a lot of enchantment by Noel Molinelli. Their lightning romance, breakup and break-in is handled with a light and convincing touch, and their songs together…are musical highlights.”
