The Trip to Bountiful February 27, 2008

'The Trip to Bountiful' tells the story of Carrie Watts, an elderly woman who flees the stifling confinement of the city apartment she shares with her son and daughter-in-law to revisit her hometown in the low farmland of the Texas coast. Amid ruin and decay wrought by the passage of time, she discovers a renewed connection to her past and the satisfaction of a life well-lived. This is a play that examines how to cope with aging, and the existential tug we all have in our hearts for "home."
