Sarah, Plain and Tall
By Joseph Robinette from the Newberry Award-winning book by Patricia MacLachlan
 
Set in the early 1900s, this play brings to life the charming, heartwarming story of a Kansas farmer, Jacob Witting, a widower with two children, Anna and Caleb, who places an ad in the newspapers seeking a wife. He receives a letter from Sarah Wheaton of Maine who will visit the family a month to see how things work out. The joys and challenges of everyday life are richly depicted in this story of faith, which the New York Times called "an exquisite, sometimes painfully touching tale."
