The Trip to Bountiful

Senior Class Reader’s Theatre Play

This tender, heartfelt American classic focuses on Carrie Watts, an aging widow, who dreams of visiting her childhood home in the small town of Bountiful, Texas one last time. Filled with beautiful memories of the stately mansion she left behind three decades ago, Carrie escapes the confines of her son and overbearing daughter-in-law and sets out to fulfill her dream. Her hopes of reconnecting with the strength, dignity and peace of mind that have long eluded her come face-to-face with a reality that is both heartbreaking and life-affirming. This unforgettable play is a tribute to home and its power to sustain us.
