This classic dramatic comedy follows eight bus
passengers stranded at 1950s roadside diner in the middle of a snowstorm. A young,
rambunctious cowboy is headed back to his ranch in Montana after falling in love and
kidnapping the first girl he meets — a nightclub singer named Cherie. Mix in a no-nonsense
sheriff, a flirty bus driver, a tipsy college professor, and two waitresses just trying to referee the
madness, and you’ve got a wonderfully heartfelt play that has charmed audiences for more than
60 years.
This show will be directed by Renee Lierow and will run for five total performances Feb. 23-26.
Auditions for the play will be held Wednesday, Dec. 21 and Thursday, Dec. 22 at 7 p.m. at the
historic Ringgold Depot. The play has acting roles available for five men and three women.
Backstage roles are available as well.
