Synopsis: | Returning to the grubby North Carolina mill town in which he had grown up, a would-be Hollywood actor, Clyde Owens, rejoins his younger brother, his estranged father, and his frail, sensitive mother, who is dying of cancer. Lionized by his old friends, most of whom now work at the mill, he is treated like a celebrity-although the truth is that his acting career has long since reached a dead end. When Clyde announces that he plans to stay on and take a job at the mill old tensions re-emerge-the disappointment of the mother, who had dreamed of a better life for her son; and the bitterness which Clyde feels toward his mill-hand father, whose coarseness contrasts painfully with the artistic pretensions of his mother. Her death brings the play to its moving climax, in which father and son, if not reconciled, come to a compassionate understanding of their differences and an acceptance of the need to follow their separate paths in life. | |||||

Synopsis: | Told from the standpoint of Charles de Lesseps, the loyal, steadfast son of Ferdinand de Lesseps' first marriage, the action of the play shifts back and forth between the courtroom where de Lesseps and his associates are on trial for fraud and mismanagement and scenes of the events and missteps which led to their disastrous decision to attempt construction of a canal across the Isthmus of Panama. An honored hero for his miraculous accomplishment in building the Suez Canal, de Lesseps has married a young wife and is happily tending his estate and siring a second family. Already over seventy, his friends and family are wary when he is approached about undertaking another monumental project, particularly in view of early reports about rampant disease and the debilitating climate of the Central American jungle. But, convinced that his powers are sufficient, de Lesseps takes on the task, despite his need to delegate much of the preliminary fact-finding to younger and less able men and the raising of capital to uns | |||||
