Paperback. Etat : new. Paperback. "Roadside, a Comedy" is a vibrant folk play by the renowned American dramatist Lynn Riggs, whose work famously captured the unique spirit and vernacular of the American Southwest. Set in the early 20th century in the Oklahoma Territory, the play follows the boisterous adventures of Texas, a larger-than-life wanderer and self-proclaimed "wild man," and his encounter with Hannie, a woman seeking a life beyond the mundane constraints of her current marriage.A celebration of the untamed frontier spirit, "Roadside, a Comedy" explores the tension between the freedom of the open road and the encroaching forces of law, order, and social convention. With its rich, rhythmic dialogue and colorful characterizations, the work showcases Riggs's mastery of regional storytelling. This play stands as a significant piece of American theatrical history, prefiguring the folk-inflected style that would later characterize the author's most famous works. It offers a humorous and spirited look at characters who refuse to be tamed, making it a classic example of American regional comedy that remains a testament to the cultural identity of the rural West.This work has been selected by scholars as being culturally important, and is part of the knowledge base of civilization as we know it.
