The Cheyenne Gunslingers have been performing Old West-style melodramas in Cheyenne since 1983. They are now kicking off their 2025 season as Cheyenne Frontier Days begins this year.
At the same time, the city of Cheyenne is considering relocating them once again to make way for the 15th Street Railcar Experience. The group of volunteers opposes this move, but feel they have little leverage as the city owns the land they perform on and the city’s governing body moves forward with the railcar project.
This week on Wyoming Watch, Noah Zahn spoke with Roger "Lucky" Barnes, the chief marshal of the Gunslingers, and Pamela "Trixie" Schliske, another Gunslinger.
Stick around until the end for a recap of the top stories from the WTE newsroom over the past week.
