SALOON GIRLS, a play produced by August Kiss Fegley and Katie Kunkel

Howdy! SALOON GIRLS is a vaudevillian dark comedy set in a 19th-century brothel in Cripple Creek Colorado, one of the most influential mining towns of the Great American West. The story unfolds in one room—the dressing room—where the painted ladies doll themselves up, debrief their evenings, and scheme to navigate a male-dominated, lawless land. Journey with us to the wild west and learn the bawdy and boisterous stories of these soiled doves, woven in a tapestry of Americana sing alongs and burlesque.

In 2025, we premiered Saloon Girls at Edinburgh Festival Fringe, the world's largest live performance art festival, and brought home 2 awards, including the Derek Award for Hidden Gem of the Fringe.   
 

Now, we are booking tour dates in the US and raising funds to cover costs of travel and housing for our team, marketing and publicity, and production costs. All donations are tax deductible. 

Every dollar counts, and no contribution is too small.

Your gifts allow us to tell a story that champions the women who’ve been written out of history. By supporting us, you’re honoring the legacy of these women with authenticity, humor, and heart.

Together, we can challenge outdated narratives and celebrate these women for who they truly were: survivors, hustlers, and trailblazers.
