This is a heartwarming comedy about 5 southern ladies who met 20 years ago on their college swim team. "They have set aside a long weekend every August to recharge those relationships. Free from husbands, kids and jobs, they meet at the same beach cottage on North Carolina’s Outer Banks to catch up, laugh and meddle in each other’s lives," explains Dramatist Play Service. The play brings the gals back together in their 40s and takes you thru a lifetime of love, laughter, and a celebration of friendship.

"Directing this play is exciting to me," exclaims Nancy Hope Major. "The humor, love and friendship of these five ladies enable them to face what curves life throws at them. All in the audience are sure to smile, laugh, and relate to these ladies. All will either see themselves or someone they know as they watch this funny play."
