Buffalo Bill in the Gallery of the Machines

In BUFFALO BILL IN THE GALLERY OF THE MACHINES, legendary Buffalo Bill Cody and his Wild West–a MENAGERIE of exotic animals and human eccentrics–are on the verge of bankruptcy until the troupe goes overseas for a tour through Europe. To his American audience, Buffalo’s Wild West is losing its appeal as the true West fades from memory and new technologies become more glorious than Western wonders. To his crew and inner-circle, Buffalo strains his closest relationships, especially with his confidant and friend, Sitting Bull, as the onetime cowboy hero becomes ever more dependent on the booze that dulled his senses and dimmed his conscience, reawakening the violent ROUGHRIDER he once was. All the while, the star of his show, a giant beast of a man with near-MIRACULOUS strength, threatens to leave his leading role to discover his mysterious past. Here is a Western tale told with the very same spirit in which Buffalo Bill Cody himself created his Wild West spectacle, where the truth of history is one to be stretched, ignored, and made all the more wild.
