Compared by many to the play “Steel Magnolias” this comedy with much Jewish humor is about the widows Doris, Ida and Lucille, whose husbands died one after another in just a few years. The three friends react quite differently on the deaths. But they make it a habit to meet once a month at the graves of their husbands. Enter Sam, who makes Ida wonder if she may be ready to open her heart to a second chance at love. The two find a connection that is soon torn asunder by Ida's meddling friends. With sparks flying and a mild cat fight, complete with drinks thrown in faces, Ida, Lucille and Doris each more intently view their journey as single women. The women are bound together by their hurt, their healing and the discovery that they are more alike than they believed. Written by Ivan Menchell.
Directed by Patrick M. Mendelson.
