The setting is a farmhouse in the West, inhabited by a family who have enough to eat, but not enough to satisfy the other hungers which bedevil them. It is a metaphor for the underside of American life-benighted life-benighted innocents forever pursuing a dimishing dream and the illusions of fulfillment, fulfill-ment, which remains forever beyond their reach "Shepard has fashioned a play of eloquent intensity, whirlwind force and resonantly resonant-ly poignant insight," wrote Time Magazine. "A rising chorus of approval is greeting the plays of Sam Shepard, wno writes of quintessential American Amer-ican characters in the idioms of rock, sci fi, dope and the wild West. He's the hottest young playwright around," says Michael VerMeulen of Esquire Magazine. The cast includes James Morrison, William C. Moore, Susan Creed, Margaret Varra, Robert Bonvento, Don Glover, David Radosevich, and Bill Stockholm; The set design is by David Radosevich with lights designed by Scott Johnson.
