A One-Act Musical Play set in the Fannin Street Cafe in the black section of Shreveport, Louisiana
It's 1957 and proprietors MABEL and SAM are trying to close early because a storm is brewing
Suddenly two White Folk hurtle into the room
The man - NIGEL - carries a guitar case
He's an Englishman come to research Folk music in Louisiana
With him is LUANN, his guide to the state
For the next hour or so these four characters argue, joke, sing, and tell stories
And eventually reach an understanding and a friendship over a surprisingly shared bit of history
