You’re going to love this contemporary musical comedy for older performers. The story centers on Maggie Hill, an unmarried, newly retired school teacher with a meager pension and Lady Anne Windesmeer, a recent widow who has been swindled out of most of her funds by an unscrupulous lawyer. The two seniors convert Lady Anne’s home into a bed and breakfast, which becomes the setting for a cast of characters that bring with them hilarity, intrigue, romance, warmth, and a twisting chain of events that will shake up your audience in more ways that one.

Audience members leave the theatre humming the memorable songs woven throughout this funny yet sensitive look at senior life. You’ll discover why the show has been profitable every time it’s been staged. A Bag Full of Miracles has been performed throughout the US and Canada to rave reviews and standing ovations!
