DAYTON — The trailer for the 1955 film version of the Pulitzer Prize-winning play “Picnic” doesn’t scream “sex!” or “desperate small-town women!”
But that’s the subtext for a voiceover, which explains:
“On a still, hot September morning in a little Kansas town, a man got off a train. This is the story of what happened that day to this man and that town, especially to its women.”
Many years later, on days with much different weather in a state with few passenger trains for men to ride, Wright State University Theatre will present “Picnic.”
