Script Selection: Whistle Stop by Tracy Wells
The regulars at the Whistle Stop diner know there’s nothing in life that can’t be fixed by a hot cup of coffee and a warm slice of apple pie, even if presidential candidates prefer to stop at the nearby Gold Star Cafe while on their campaign tour. So, when a cold front freezes the pipes at the Gold Star, the diners at the Whistle Stop scramble to prepare for an unexpected visit from the latest presidential hopeful. But as pressures mount and the stakes are raised, tension and misunderstanding threaten to divide this small town, putting the candidate’s visit, and the community as a whole, in jeopardy. Whistle Stop is a story about people, not politics, that uses humor and heart to gently examine societal friction through the lens of a small town while ultimately reminding us that, at the end of the day, it’s not what divides us, but what brings us together that makes us a nation.
