Tony Awards and Nominations for The Trip to Bountiful

Horton Foote's tender, heartfelt story focuses on Carrie Watts who dreams of returning to her childhood home in the small town of Bountiful, Texas, which she left three decades ago. She plots a daring journey to the place whose peaceful memory has comforted her in the stressful life she leads with her frail son and shrewish daughter-in-law. The fulfillment of her dream is a bittersweet experience that transforms longing into satisfaction that is both heartbreaking and brilliantly life-affirming.
