“Four Old Broads” A hilarious comedy by Leslie Kimbel opens this weekend.
The Grand Marais playhouse is very proud to present the second show in our summer theater festival opening Friday July 21 at 7 p.m.
Four sassy senior ladies: Beatrice, Eaddy, Imogene, and Maude need a break from bingo and macramé. They want to take a SASSY SENIORS Caribbean cruise. Unfortunately, things have not been pleasant at Magnolia Place Assisted Living since nasty nurse Pat came to work there. A mystery unfolds with laughter as the gals try to outsmart her.
Throw in a senior citizen beauty pageant, an old Elvis Impersonator, a trashy makeover and you have a laugh a minute evening of theater that will have you rolling in aisles!
