By Horton Foote.

Directed by John David Lutz.

In one of nine plays comprising the prolific playwright’s The Orphans’ Home Cycle, Horton Foote once again masterfully mixes the bitter with the sweet and the sad with the comic, in his typically appealing manner. In 1909, Horace Robedaux boards a train bound for Houston to visit his mother and self-absorbed sister, only to find himself fighting a raging fever and at the mercy of an icy stepfather. Horace’s desperate longing to make a connection with these estranged kinsfolk is a vivid reminder of the lasting heartbreak that families endure to survive in life’s ever-changing landscape.
