Wingfield Unbound

In his fourth season on the farm (and his first as a married man), Walt Wingfield tries to preserve the memory of the old rural community of Persephone Township by promoting the crumbling Hollyhock Mill as a museum site. But the locals say the mill is haunted. Undaunted by such superstitious fears, Walt sets out to prove to the neighbours that there’s nothing to this curse business -- with near disastrous results.

Au moment de sa quatrième saison sur la ferme, (mais de sa première en tant qu’homme marié), Walt Wingfield essaie de sauvegarder le souvenir de la vieille communauté rurale de Persephone Township : il propose comme site pour un musée la mine délabrée Hollyhock. Or les gens de l’endroit affirment que cette mine est hantée. Sans se laisser décourager par la superstition, Walt s’acharne à démontrer que rien dans le voisinage ne viendra maudire cette entreprise. Les résultats seront presque désastreux...

“ Beattie’s Walt... remains an endearing companion for a night out at the theatre.”
