The inspiring folk hero Abigail Becker serves as leaping point for a hilarious and adventurous Souwesto Melodrama. A stir of melodrama and a dash of stage illusion will create an uproarious night of theatre.

When harbor worker Hector is prevented from marrying Nella Price by her father, adventure leads to a leaky schooner upon Lake Erie, almost walking the plank and an encounter with Abigail Becker- the Angel of Long Point.
