Synopsis:
The dramatic story of industrial genius George Pullman's soaring idealism in
confrontation with the effects of recession on workers in 19th century
Chicago. A timely tale of capitalism, unions, and politics, and the toll
they take on the lives they touch.  George Pullman began his rise to power
dedicated to providing a safe, uplifting workplace for his employees.  He
even created a town where his workers could live away from the slums of
Chicago. Despite his good intentions, he became one of the most despised men
of the Industrial Era.  Jeffrey Sweet's American Enterprise is a sweeping
journey through the late nineteenth century.  The play incorporates
narration, song and movement, and story theatre techniques to portray
Sweet's large cast of characters.
