Bus Stop will be staged by ACT I may 14-23 at the Palace Theatre in Vinton. The setting is a small bus stop diner outside of Kansas City, where a diverse group of travelers must spend the night together waiting for the roads to be cleared of a snow storm. Each of the eight characters learns hard lessons about the nature of love and loneliness in situations that are poignant and funny.
