Set in the time of a paralyzing drought in Depression-era America, The Rainmaker tells the story of a pivotal hot summer day in the life of spinsterish Lizzie Curry, whose father and two brothers are worried as much about her marriage prospects as they are about their dying cattle.

A musical version of The Rainmaker, entitled 110 Degrees in the Shade, debuted on Broadway in 1963.
