Set in a small town in the middle of Ireland, Wife To James Whelan
is the heart-wrenching story of star-crossed lovers. James is an
ambitious young man determined to make his mark. Nan wants him to be
content with what he has "and not be forever pushing forward." We meet
them first on the day James learns he's won a prize job in Dublin,
leaving Nan behind. James asks Nan to wait for him, but she'll "make no
promise." We next see James seven years later, sole proprietor of a
thriving new enterprise in Killbeggan, the "Silver Wings" Bus Service
and "all the girls are going at him full tilt." Three women might be
'Wife to James Whelan': Nan, his true love, Kate, his true friend, and
Nora, who appeals to his ambition--but the unanswered question of the
play is whether anyone or anything can bring him happiness.
