O'Neill Theater Festival : "Edge" by Jim Dalglish

Mark and Tom live alone on a remote farm on the windswept plains of North Dakota, and they've gotten used to it. Then one day a rapacious traveling saleswoman drives up the gravel road in a pink Continental with a plan. "Honey, if this isn't the edge of the world, bet sure as hell you can see it from here... Bet sure as hell." — Abbey
