The extraordinary true story of one woman’s selfless act that inspired thousands and benefited millions.

In 1941, when 26-year-old Rae Wilson heard that her brother’s troop train would be making a stop in their hometown of North Platte, Nebraska, she organized a group of ladies to welcome the boys with food and gifts for their long journey off to war. But a different train without her brother arrived instead, and Rae’s decision to welcome these young men and women transformed her generosity into a four-and-a-half year phenomenon.

A Two-Act musical full of love, perseverance, and even a popcorn ball.
