The Frontier Trilogy  The Frontier Trilogy is a 2015 Western triptych of stage plays by Jethro Compton. The trilogy consists of "Blood Red Moon", "The Clock Strikes Noon" and "The Rattlesnake's Kiss" alongside two additional short stories, "San Sebastian" and "Noche De Sangre" which "expand the world of the plays". "Blood Red Moon" - Follow the brothers as they journey west to California. Gold and fortune await, but so too does the blood moon – an omen warning death follows close behind. Brotherhood has kept them together; jealousy threatens to tear them apart. "The Clock Strikes Noon" - Trapped, guns near empty, the clock is ticking. Walker must make the choice: to do what’s easy, or to do what’s right. The railroad shines like a beacon of the modern age; for the people of Cooper’s Ridge, it brings only darkness. "The Rattlesnake's Kiss" - Hidden deep in the dust of the American West, the outlaw comes face to face with the lawman in search of justice. His life of murder is far behind, but can he ever escape the man he was born to become? The play premièred at the Edinburgh Festival Fringe on 5 August 2015, under the direction of Jethro Compton.
