The Daredevil, a one person play written and performed by John Henry Haseltine, chronicles the career and legacy of an anonymous motorcycle jumping daredevil from Butte, Montana who attempts to launch himself over a canyon in a steam-powered rocket craft. This hand-crafted maximalist folk art theater piece examines failings in exceptionalism, haunted American myths, and the gruesome consequences of a faulty parachute deployment system.John Henry Haseltine is an artist and writer based in Livingston, Montana. His book Westward & Miserable, a collection of paintings and stories gathered from his past gallery shows was published by Elk River Books in 2024 and won a High Plains International Book Award. The Mountain Clown & Other Foul Animals, his solo museum exhibition opened in 2024 at the Yellowstone Art Museum and was featured by the New York Times in its seasonal U.S. Gallery and Museum preview. The exhibition presented a fabricated career retrospective of Mable MacKenzie, a fictional children’s storybook author, complete with literary and biographical excerpts, paintings, toys, comics, and a live gallery performance of The Phantom Chuckwagon, Haseltine’s first one-person show.
