One suite. Six doors. Nine people.
One spectacular West Texas disaster.
Welcome, and thank you for reading. This is your Advance Reader Copy of The Cattle Baron’s Ball, provided in confidence ahead of the September 1 launch.
⛶ Best experience: Open this page on a desktop or laptop, then click the full-screen icon in the upper right corner of the reader for a clean, full-page view.
📋 On iPad or tablet: Hold your device in portrait orientation for a comfortable single-page view. Landscape will display two pages side by side, which reduces the text to a difficult reading size.
🕮 Finding your place: Use the contents icon (grid of squares, upper right) to jump between scenes.
📱 On mobile: This reader is best experienced on a desktop or laptop. The play’s font size on the average phone is simply too small to read comfortably.
Prefer a PDF? Inside the reader, click the print icon in the upper right toolbar and select Print to PDF from your printer options.
Trouble viewing? Open the flipbook directly.
