Lola is a faded beauty queen, trapped in
a lonely marriage to Doc, a recovering alcoholic
on the brink of relapse. When a pretty young
woman becomes a boarder in their cluttered
Midwest home, their lives are unsettled
as unspoken passions rise to the surface.
As the emptiness of their marriage is laid
bare, can they find their way back to each
other or will they be undone?
Celebrated playwright William Inge explores
these powerful themes in Come Back, Little
Sheba, a true American classic about lost
hopes and unfulfilled promise, told with
unflinching honesty and heartbreaking power.
