Wheatfield: A Play: A Dust Bowl-Era Family Drama in Two Acts

By Joe Egly

Set against the dry winds and wheat-choked fields of the Great Depression, Wheatfield is a stirring, two-act stage play that follows the Harrow family-Samuel, Eleanor, and their children-as they face loss, change, and the decision to abandon the land they've called home for generations.

As dust storms choke the plains and opportunities fade, the Harrows must choose between honoring the past and stepping into an uncertain future. When daughter Clara falls in love and eldest son Lyle writes from Oregon promising hope, their final harvest becomes more than survival-it becomes a farewell.

With lyrical dialogue and intimate emotional depth, Wheatfield is a moving portrait of resilience, hope, and what it means to move on.
