Moses on the Mesa

Description

This uplifting short drama was inspired by the real life of a man named Solomon Bibo. He was a Jewish boy from Germany who came to the Wild West in the late 1800s. He learned how to ride a horse, shoot a gun, play poker with the outlaws, and make friends with the “Indians” from his grandpa’s tall tales. He married a pueblo beauty, battled against crooked government agents and became the governor of the oldest settlement in North America. Life threw him many curves after that – he fought for progress but lost to tradition, his friends turned against him, great earthquakes and great depressions wiped him out, but he always fought back… and always remained a Jew… a Moses on the Mesa.
