Sound Clips from Back to Bodie

About the Faux Renwahs

Performance Dates and Tours


In the remote high desert east of the Sierra Nevada mountains lies the town of Bodie, the last, wildest mining camp of the Wild West. Today the town is a California State Park, well preserved in a state of arrested decay......



Back to Bodie is a two-act musical play written by Cactus Renwah (aka Bob Cole). It is the story of Fourdyce Tucker who returns to Bodie after an absence of 70 years, only to discover that the town has been abandoned to the ghosts. As he remembers his life in Bodie's heyday, when he was a young mining engineer, Fourdyce flashes back in time to the Buckinghorse Moon Saloon.

All his friends are there: the saloon girls, the miners, the gamblers, his old nemesis Jack DeChambeau, the spirit Josie Connor and the only girl he ever loved, Sadie.

He makes some surprising discoveries...these are the songs.......
