Meet Me at the Bus Stop

When people are unexpectedly thrown together in close quarters, storytelling magic happens. William Inge’s 1955 play, Bus Stop, tells the tale of a group of travelers who end up stuck at a diner near  Kansas City during a snowstorm. One character, Cherie, deals with a cowboy’s unwelcome advances while seven other main characters have complex issues revealed as the story unfolds. With romance, drama, and even a little comedy, The Toledo Rep’s performance of Bus Stop has all the trappings of a great story.

$9.75-$19.75. 8pm Friday, January 11-Saturday, January 12. The 10th Street Theater. 16 10th St. 419-243-9277. Toledorep.org.
