Albert Cobb was going to be a farmer, so his Army buddies called him “Plowboy”.
One buddy, Larry Doyle now dying, has come for a last visit hoping to content himself that he did one good deed: saving Albert's life during a wartime scrimmage. He finds a man who has failed at farming and everything else, including marriage. With a disabled child, deceived by his wife and his own beliefs, Albert's attempts to deceive Larry only make the deception more evident, leaving him alone with his own self-delusions.
By the author of the Pulitzer Prize-winning play The Subject Was Roses.
PERFORMANCE SCHEDULE:
WEDNESDAY thru SATURDAY @ 8 PM
SUNDAY @ 3 PM

“A starkly taut, clear cut drama painful in its insights, poignant in its subtleties.”
