PUMP BOYS AND DINETTES Music & lyrics by Jim Wann Princess Theatre, Broadway - July 10, 1981 (685 perfs) Piccadilly Theatre, London - 20 September, 1984 SYNOPSIS On Highway 57, somewhere between Frog Level and Smyrna, stands a gas station. Across the blacktop is a roadside eatery called the Double Cupp Diner. The four guys at the station, Jim, Jackson, Eddie and L.M., have been known to do some auto repairs, but only when aided by quantities of time and beer. The Cupp sisters, Prudie and Rhetta, celebrate their home cooking with the same zeal they bring to being neighbourly with the boys. This is their musical tribute to life by the roadside!
