Bus Stop by William Inge

Description

In the middle of a snowstorm, a bus of four or five weary travelers out of Kansas City pulls up at a small roadside diner and takes refuge until morning. Cherie, a nightclub singer, has the most to worry about. She is being pursued by a young cowboy with all the romantic finesse of a rodeo bull ready to carry her, alive and kicking, all the way to Montana. As a counterpoint to the main romance, the proprietor of the cafe and the bus driver at last find time to develop a friendship of their own; a middle-age scholar comes to terms with himself; and a young girl who works in the cafe also gets her first taste of romance.
