SFist Today
Who ya got? The cowboy or the samurai? That's the question posed by the Asian-American Theater Company's Cowboy v. Samurai, a story about two Asian-American cowboys in Montana who fall in love with the same Korean-American new girl in town. Our Gothamist cousins liked it when it played in New York. 2 p.m. at the Thick House (1695 18th Street, x Arkansas), $20.
Other events:
--The workers united -- have a whole month to celebrate! July is Laborfest month, and you can celebrate today at a poetry reading about growing up working-class at City Lights (5 p.m., Broadway and Columbus), or at all-day labor movie screenings at the Roxie ($5, 16th and Valencia), including a documentary about the union workers who rebuilt SF after the 1906 earthquake.
