Synopsis:
This drama tells the story of the prosperous, despotic Hubbard family at the turn of the century in the South. The scheming brothers, Ben and Oscar and the wickedly clever sister, Regina ambitiously plan to erect a cotton mill but lack $75,000.00 to complete the transaction. They hope to manipulate Regina’s ailing husband, Horace upon his return from the hospital to finance the operation, but he refuses to commit himself. Ben and Oscar along with his son, Leo take $80,000 worth of bonds from Horace’s safe deposit box hoping to replace them before the theft is discovered. Horace, knowing that his time is short, has the box brought to him and informs Regina of their breach. However, he tells her that he has willed the bonds to her and that he we will say nothing about the theft as long as he is alive, calling it a loan. Cruelly, Regina recalls their unhappy married life and watches as Horace is stricken with a severe attack. Upon his timely death, Regina then blackmails her brothers into giving her a significant percentage of the business.

Tickets are $16.00.
