The play takes place in the 1890’s, on the Jumpin J ranch located outside of Abilene, Kansas. It’s early Saturday evening. The Jumpin J ranch is getting ready to celebrate it’s grand opening as a “Dude Ranch”. We are in one of the bunkhouses. The railroad has done away with cattle drives and with that has threatened the very livelihood of the cowboy/herder. There is great anticipation that the night’s activities of song and stories will be informative and entertaining.  Hopefully with a successful evening the ranch will be saved from financial disaster and the lives of the cowboy will continue to promote independence and freedom for many years to come.
