For Crossroads, the Repertory Theater of Iowa will present the final scene of Horton Foote’s The Trip To Bountiful, which the RTI company presented last September at Westminster-Presbyterian Church to kick-off the 2009 – 2010 Westminster Fine Arts series.  In this scene, the main character, Carrie Watts, an elderly widow, has run away from her son’s home in Houston to visit her home in Bountiful, Texas.  With her son and daughter-in-law coming for her to bring her back to Houston, Carrie persuades a sympathetic sheriff in the neighboring town to take her to see her home one last time.  Theater critic John Busbee called The Trip To Bountiful “a richly textured masterpiece which marvelously adds to Repertory Theatre of Iowa’s growing mission to bring the classics to life.”
