When they were teen-agers, James Dean filmed Giant in nearby Marfa, Texas. An elaborate set features authentic 1950s memorabilia. The play jogs between 1955 and 1975. Two actors play the same character young and old. These young persons just worshipped James Dean.
Women share their lives.
One, who was an extra in Giant, claims she has James Dean's bastard child. Another has shed her promiscuous past. Another suffers an identity crisis. It's a more cutting-edge piece of material. As far as the characters go, you can relate to traits in all of them.
