In this beautiful story of love, community, and connection to the land, Inge Altenberg journeys to America to marry a bachelor farmer, sight unseen. But in the wake of WWI, Inge’s German heritage turns her neighbors against the match. Don’t miss what Talkin’ Broadway called “a thoroughly human story of enduring love…one of the finest original works to appear on any Twin Cities stage over the past several seasons.”
