The Last Out Gate at The Chain Theatre

With just two weeks to the National Bull Riding Championship and sporting a career ending injury, champion rider Tyson Garrett’s world is changed by the unexpected arrival of his nephew who desperately needs his help.

Reckoning with how the forces of environment, religion, and family can play upon queer lives, The Last Out Gate is a coming of self story, set against the backdrop of the South and the violent world of bull riding. It’s also a love story, exploring the imprint of love, community, and family on the course of someone's life.
