Linden Hill and one minor male or female character part.  During the golden age of steamboats on the Chesapeake Bay, the verandahs of the legendary resorts were lined with green rocking chairs. Diary entries show that women met while vacationing at these resorts and often continued their friendships year after year. Amy Ainsworth of Philadelphia and Eliza Reynolds of Richmond first meet in the Gay Nineties and every summer thereafter through the Ragtime era, WWI, the Roaring Twenties, the Stock Market Crash, up to the gathering storm of WWII. Lulled by Bay breezes and the rhythm of the green rocking chairs, they formed a friendship that strengthened their ability to face the events of life, right up to the play's unexpected conclusion. About the Playwright - Jeanne Frank worked professionally in the theatre and television until she 'retired' to attend college with the ambition to become a writer. Today she lives in a historic home, Linden Hill, on the Eastern Shore of Maryland, where she writes, teaches, lectures and has come full circle back to the theatre.

"Like life,
the play is both tragedy and comedy." "What an
opportunity for any actress! Rock on!" "My wife
went with 'the girls' to see it at the Globe Theatre, then she
insisted I go back with her the next weekend. She was right.
I was amazed that this was no 'chick-flick' play." "Every
man has a mistress whose name is Nostalgia."
