The opening of the play finds the Rose family with four teenagers already under their wing, and a fifth one jimmy john fBobby Andrewsl, who was raised in the slums and is crippled by the after effects of polio, soon to arrive. Mother Rose CDonna Grieml is forced to carry the burden of raising the five children alone after the death of Poppy CBart Munsoni. The family is brought closer together as jimmy john realizes he is needed. and Janey CSandra Ballardl, a timid defensive girl, overcomes her great fear of water by rescuing a drowning woman fSonja Edgrenl. The audience was given an inside view and understanding of family life as well as being entertained by the fine acting of the juniors.
