Splendor in the Grass

Splendor in the Grass


Adapted by F. Andrew Leslie from the Oscar-winning screenplay by William Inge, and set in a small Midwestern city in the 1920's, Splendor in the Grass is a beautiful story of ill-fated young love and the fight to survive and overcome parental expectations, societal repression and the reality of broken dreams. It's a story that could happen almost anywhere at any time, to any of us. Hard decisions, and the consequences of those decisions, love and heartbreak, the confusion of youth and insensitivity of adults... themes that touch all of our lives.

Directed by: Dani Mann
