Lone Star at Aberdeen Community Theatre

"Lone Star" is set in the cluttered backyard of the same small town's watering hole. Roy, a brawny, macho, former high-school hero, is back in town after a hitch in Vietnam. He's trying to rejoin the community, but can't stop reminiscing about his glory days. Joined by Ray, his adoring, younger brother, Roy dives into a case of beer while entertaining his brother with stories of his military and amorous adventures. Roy seems to cherish three things above all — his country, his sexy young wife, and his 1959 pink Thunderbird. When Cletis, the vacuous, newlywed son of the local hardware store owner, shows up, Roy's world begins to collapse as indiscretions come to light. Despite this, the good humor of the play never lapses.
