Christmas is approaching and William Garrett is a very happy man. His business is booming, his family is healthy, and his three closest friends are over for their weekly meeting of the Shakespeare Study Club where Shakespeare takes a back seat to poker and women aren’t allowed. Then the trouble starts! The men are interrupted by William’s frantic daughter, then his concerned wife, his domineering mother-in-law and, finally, the Reverend Fowler. As William’s good spirits and economic well-being fly out the window, all are kept guessing who will finally gain the upper hand and reestablish the Christmas spirit.

SYNOPSIS
The ‘Pump Boys’ sell high octane on Highway 57 in Grand Ole Opry country and the ‘Dinettes’, Prudie and Rhetta Cupp, run the Double Cupp diner next door. Together they fashion an evening of country western songs that received unanimous raves on and off-Broadway. With heartbreak and hilarity, they perform on guitars, piano, bass and, yes, kitchen utensils.

THE CEMETERY CLUB By Ivan Menchell
Three Jewish widows meet once a month for tea before going to visit their husband’s 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. He meets the widows while visiting his wife’s grave. Doris and Lucille squash the budding romance between Sam and Ida. They are guilt stricken when this nearly breaks Ida’s heart. The Broadway production starred Eileen Heckart as Lucille.
