About Lust
'n' Rust
Lust 'n
Rust is the story of Steve, a corporate manager from New
Jersey who is transferred by his company to a small Southern
Illinois town to run the local Agribig food processing plant. He
moves into the Redbud Mobile Estates and meets the quirky
characters that live in the trailer park.
The spirit
of the Redbud Mobile Estates can be summed up by the chorus of a
country-waltz anthem sung by the cast:
Here at the Redbud, you won't be impressed
Mostly we sit back and chill
Here at the Redbud, you won't get depressed
Play tunes and fire up the grill
Steve's
life is immediately complicated by a relationship with Connie, a
neighbor in the park who waits tables at Smitty's Diner. Connie
is splitting up with her soon to be ex-husband, Duane, who is
trying to gain Connie's forgiveness for an unfortunate incident.
Steve's life is further complicated when he gets a difficult
assignment - an action that could have a disastrous impact on
the local economy.
