Get ready to set sail with your favorite Old Broads. Yes… they’re back again and ready for a Sassy Senior’s cruise to the Bahamas. Beatrice is determined to have her pick of ALL the eligible men on the ship… but Maude, fresh from her win at The Miss Magnolia Senior Citizen Pageant, plans on being her biggest competition. Wedding bells are ringing for Sam and Imogene… maybe. And Eaddy… well… she just wants to know what all the fuss is about up on the topless sun deck. Throw in a murder mystery, a fabulous drag queen and a crazy costume party, and you’re in for a laugh-a-minute, side-splitting laugh-out-loud night of fun. (source: Concord Theatricals)

A new play by Patricia Connelly
Directed by Rikki Howie Lacewell

When Baaba’s son is accused of a crime, the local fetish priest curses the extended family—a curse that can only be lifted when a young virgin becomes a trokosi or wife to the gods, in reality, a slave to the priest. With her young daughter at risk, Baaba pits herself against family, religion, and tradition to keep her daughter safe.
