“Bus Stop” is a romantic comedy in three acts by William Inge. The story focuses on the passengers of a cross-country bus who are stranded overnight by a blizzard and congregate in Grace’s restaurant. 

The passengers include Cherie, a flighty blonde bar singer, cowboys Bo and Virgil, and a drunken doctor, and they are joined by the sheriff, the bus driver, and a waitress. The passengers devise entertainments for themselves, and the men vie for Cherie’s attention.
