Let’s explore some of the amazing western backdrops for your production. 

Famous Musicals & Plays Set in the West

The West and western backdrops have long been settings for popular plays and musicals. Some of the more beloved over the years include Annie Get Your Gun, Oklahoma!, Calamity Jane, Seven Brides for Seven Brothers, and The Best Little Whorehouse in Texas. 

Using the Wild West as a backdrop carries significance, including the overarching theme of conflict between wilderness and civilization, the high-stakes nature of living off the land, and audience-tested archetypes such as “the outlaw” or “the drifter.” Audiences can immediately identify the “good guy” and the “bad guy” through iconic images of the Western world.

Wild West Streets & Towns 

When people picture Wild West streets and frontier towns, they immediately imagine a very specific, cinematic landscape, including false-front buildings like banks, boarding houses, and saloons. They also envision wooden boardwalks, dusty streets, and overhanging porches. 

Or perhaps your performance would suit this Western Street Backdrop featuring an iconic Western street showing brick buildings from the Wild, Wild West.

For scenes including bars or interior settings, this Western Saloon Backdrop features a Western saloon with a bar, balcony, and can-can stage with floor lights.
