The Wild West returns to Genoa Feb. 1-3. See the early days of Nevada through the eyes of Eilley Bowers – famous “Queen of the Comstock” and Julia Bulette – Virginia City’s most beloved “working girl”. With their dislike for one another, the comedy and the drama will unfold for you on the stage of Genoa’s Historic Town Hall.
In this original 2 act play by CobwebPalace Productions, Eilley Bowers is played by Lisa Bommarito who enjoys a background in the performing arts. Julia Bulette is played by Kim Copél who is a local historian. Both women are residents of Genoa and long-time locals to the Sierra Nevada Community.

Doors open 1 hour prior to each performance where No-host Cocktails, a Raffle and an Exclusive Fortune Teller – “The Amazing Madam Sandie” can be enjoyed by all. Period attire is encouraged.
