My husband and I left the cowboy dinner theater after the song "Elijah." The audience was asked to practice and chime in "an Indian war cry" as "Sweet Mary" donned a headdress, placed her hand in the "how" position (think 1950s Lone Ranger) and crossed her arms. My husband is Navajo. He said he could tolerate the cheap looking headdress (straws and feathers?), but the audience being encouraged to do the "Indian war cry" was too much. His concern was the children in the audience would learn that it's okay to do that and believe those things are true. He was way more kind than me. It is 2017. Someone in the musical show or family should recognize this is not okay.
The website says it's family friendly and hospitable/we'll feel comfortable. Not the case. Not for my family.
Old west town was cute and fun. Food was good - especially the Dutch oven biscuits and the BBQ chicken. Silly jokes and cheesy puns were all good. We enjoyed everything until that song. Please update your repertoire to include all peoples and cultures in respectful ways.
