Description

Lennie Singer
15 minute comedy
4 women, 1 either, with optional speakers of 7 either

The first in the series — What are the four outlandish ladies of the Villa Estates up to now?

When you get to the point where food, pharmaceuticals, and friendships are at odds, going out to lunch can be an experience! The four friends serve up a menu of mayhem and indigestion for the quick-witted, shuffling waiter.

What audience members are saying about the show:

“This play and these characters hit home! What a hoot!”
“I saw me on that stage! So much fun.”
“I’m being kinder to the waiter when I go out next time!”
