The play, winner of the 1953 Pulitzer Prize, takes place on Labor Day Weekend in the joint backyards of two middle-aged widows. One house belongs to Flo Owens, who lives there with her two maturing daughters, Madge and Millie, and a boarder who is a spinster school teacher. The other belongs to Helen Potts, who lives with her elderly and invalid mother. Into this female atmosphere comes a young man named Hal Carter, whose animal vitality seriously upsets the entire group. Flo is sensitively wary of temptations for her daughters. Millie finds her emotional balance for the first time through the stranger’s brief attention. And, her older sister, Madge, bored with being only a beauty, sacrifices her chances for a wealthy marriage for the excitement Hal promises.
