Based on N. Richard Nash’s own hit play THE RAINMAKER, 110 IN THE SHADE is set in the hard years of the Depression-era Dust Bowl. Saddled to a failing cattle ranch, the only woman in a family of menfolk, Lizzie Curry has just about given up hope of finding love and escape. But when a charming trickster named Starbuck breezes into town promising to bring rain for $100, Lizzie’s father gives the man the last of the family’s savings, knowing that what he has to offer them, and Lizzie, is more than just rain. 110 IN THE SHADE is a rousing musical about recognizing the beauty and potential locked away inside all of us.
