On a snowy night in Kansas, a diner can be an oasis, a prison, a place to hide, or a place to discover yourself. When a bus is forced to take shelter from stormy weather outside, a mismatched group of dreamers and cowboys, waitresses and outcasts find unexpected warmth in one another. In William Inge's 1955 classic, this great playwright of the Midwest gives voice to memorable characters who'll linger like the perfect cup of diner coffee.
