These fabulous four days are filled with with performances, readings, workshops, panel discussions, picnics, dances, dinners, retrospectives and awards ceremonies all set in picturesque Independence. Come and visit Inge's boyhood home; take a tour of historic Independence; rub elbows with the stars and be a part of honoring America's creative best.

William Inge, author of Come Back Little Sheba, Picnic, Bus Stop, The Dark at the Top of the Stairs and Splendor in the Grass, was one of America's finest playwrights. He was brought up in Independence, Kansas, and many of his plays concern the people and town he grew up in. So now, for four days in spring, Independence transforms itself into the theatrical center of the universe, combining hometown America and the thrill of Broadway.
