&ldquo;Though it sometimes looks like a rich man will never help the poor; whereas the poor people will give away everything they has to help somebody who ain&rsquo;t got nothing. That&rsquo;s how it looks to me. Don&rsquo;t seem like it ought to be that way, but I reckon the rich ain&rsquo;t got no time to fool with us poor folks.&rdquo;― Erskine Caldwell, Tobacco Road Jack Kirkland&#39;s theatrical adaptation of Erskine Caldwell&#39;s Fable of the Deconstruction &quot;Tobacco Road&quot; wields the same power on stage when the production premiered at the Masque Theatre in New York City in 1933. The production went on to become one of the longest-running plays in history, running for a staggering 3,182 performances. As of December 2024, it was still the 21st longest-running Broadway show in history, as well as being the second-longest running non-musical ever on Broadway.
