“The Trial of Wild Gil Hiccup” is an hilarious and somewhat bawdy comedy about cowboys, bar girls, lawmen, and one badass gunslinger. The gunslinger, Wild Gil Hiccup, has finally been apprehended and is on trial for the slaying of three hundred and three men. And - with two different endings - your audience gets to decide the verdict and outcome.

The backdrop for this crazy court room caper is the wild west’s Slimy Gulch Saloon Bar. The problem for the prosecution is that Gil Hiccup’s defence lawyer insists that the man on trial is, in fact, not the notorious Gil Hiccup. Your audience will hear from 6 star witnesses. What verdict they arrive at will depend on how convincing your lawyers and witnesses are!

Justice William Hammerstein the 3rd is the presiding judge and is in charge of keeping control in the courtroom. Yes… he has questionable morals and yes… he has a no-nonsense disposition. But hell, this is the wild west!

Hyatt Twerp is the prosecution lawyer and the man assigned with the job of making sure that the defendant is swinging from a noose by high noon tomorrow. His job is to paint the accused as the meanest, wildest, most vengeful and ruthless man within a 100 mile radius of Slimy Gulch.

Jessie Jaynes is the cultured and smooth-talking defence lawyer. Will Jessie’s flare for writing sappy happy-ending romance novels help him convince the jury that his client has simply and unfortunately, been mistaken for the ruthless Mr Hiccup and is, beyond any reasonable doubt, innocent!
