Overview

Women and men in outrageous shorts! This fast-paced, rollicking collection of short plays combines some of the best scenes from BUDDY BRO BUBBA DUDE and HONEY SUGAR LADY DOLL into a laugh-out-loud adventure for all. You’ll encounter women who are brilliant, baffling and know a conscience is what hurts when other parts feel sooo good. And you’ll find men who are confident, strong and who are so brave they dare to drinkwater… just to surprise their livers. These delightful short plays build to a rip-roaring climax. In short, you’ll experience the story of all our lives, which boils down to “we knew better, but we did it anyway!”

On Doubling:
This play is written for six (versatile!) performers — three women and three men. However, theatres may choose to produce the show with casts as large as nineteen performers or any number in between. If a theatre chooses a cast of three actresses and three actors, we recommend this pattern of doubling roles:

ACTRESS 1 — Asterid/Lulu/Ennis/Mavourneen
ACTRESS 2 — Vivacia/Bonnie/Della/Ravelle
ACTRESS 3 — Ellie/Winnie/Peggity
ACTOR 1 — Jack/John/Curtis
ACTOR 2 — Zeb/Roland/Archie
ACTOR 3 — Nigel/Duncan/Dub
