Synopsis

Three generations of restless souls search for contentment at a summer cabin retreat in this intimate, poignant musical about love in the face of life.

Fred and Louise Sumner, a middle aged couple plagued with serious marital troubles, return to the idyllic spot of their honeymoon 18 years ago: Riverwind, a tranquil, secluded inn on the banks of the Wabash river, whose beauty and simplicity grant clear vision and peace to those lucky enough to recognize it.  Also at the inn are Virginia and Burt (a young unmarried couple whose relationship is at a crossroads of its own), a handsome young man named John, and Jenny, the naive young daughter of Riverwind's unflappable manager and matron, Leona.  Riverwind works its magic as the couple sport through their troubles and emotions, emerging a little stronger and, with any luck, a little wiser.

A tender, humorous book and a fresh well-crafted, witty eclectic score made this very human drama one of the most successful off-Broadway shows of the 1960s.

Book, Music, and Lyrics by John Jennings
