Fall Musical
Percy Talbott is released from prison and arrives in the small town of Gilead, WI where Sheriff Joe Sutter finds the young girl a room and a job at a ramshackle diner called The Spitfire Grill. It's run by a crusty old widow, Hannah Ferguson. Caught in a swirl of small town suspicions led by the village busybody, Percy soon wonders whether she has made a mistake in coming to Gilead. But, when Hannah breaks her leg, Percy takes over against the better wishes of Hannah's fiercely protective nephew, Caleb. Percy is joined at the Spitfire Grill by Caleb's wife, Shelby, who tells Percy about Gilead's past - the day the town hero went off to war and Gilead changed forever. Wanting to escape the painful memories, Hannah has had the Grill on the market for 10 years. It is Percy who dreams up a possible solution...a solution that leads to some surprising discoveries.
