Lois's Wedding: A Non-Traditional Musical

The Non-Traditional Musical, Lois's Wedding, takes place in Morgan, PA, a small town (population 10,000) that has a bonanza of natural gas underneath it. Those who can have sold their mineral rights and are now moving away, causing a rift between those who can afford to leave and those who are forced to stay in a town that doesn't feel like home anymore. Another sub-set of townies are those who are profiting from the change: the mayor and the lawyer who brokers the deals between townies and Vulcan Oil. The town is mostly descended from Eastern European immigrants who have lost any connection to their Slavic roots. This upheaval will destroy the little that's left of their sense of place.
