'The Cemetery Club' to be staged

The production is directed by Leo Meyer.

The story revolves around three
Jewish widows who meet once a month to have tea before they go to visit
their husbands’ graves.
Ida is sweet tempered and ready to begin a new
life, Lucille is a feisty embodiment of the girl who just wants to have
fun, and Doris is priggish and judgmental, particularly when Sam the
butcher enters the scene.
Doris and Lucille squash the budding romance
between Sam and Ida. They are stricken with guilt when this nearly
breaks Ida’s heart.
“Funny, sweet-tempered and moving.” - The Boston Globe.
“An evening of pure pleasure that will make you glad you came to the theatre.” -Washington Journal Newspapers
