They will be presenting The Voice of The Prairie  a play which begins in the early 1890s with an old hobo named Poppy. Poppy, named by his avid companion Davey Quinn, is telling a tale. Itinerant story tellers like Poppy are the voices of the prairie. Years later in 1923, Davey is discovered by a radio entrepreneur while he is telling stories about Poppy and Frankie, a blind girl he rescued from a cruel father.
