THE STORY: When the biggest highlight in your life for the past 30 years has been your weekly bridge night out with the "girls," what do you do when one of your foursome inconveniently dies? If you're Connie, Leona and Millie, three southern ladies from Birmingham, you do the most daring thing you've ever done. You "borrow" the ashes from the funeral home for one last card game, and the wildest, most exciting night of your lives involves a police raid, a stripper and a whole new way of looking at all the fun you can have when you're truly living.
A winner of the AACTNewPlayFest, Exit Laughing broke all records for a nonmusical in Springfield Little Theatre's 50-year history at its premiere.
CHARACTER BREAKDOWN
RACHEL ANN (20’s): College student who seems to have issues with life and men. She has a bit of an attitude.
CONNIE HARLAND (Mid-Late 50’s): Rachel’s mother. Discovers on bridge night that contrary to what she believes, life doesn’t end at 55.
LEONA (Mid-Late 50’s): One of Connie’s closest friends and member of the bridge club. Beautician by day and lush by night
MILLIE (Mid-Late 50’s): Another of Connie’s friends and member of the bridge club. Loveable, exhausting and marches to the beat of her own drum
POLICEMAN/BOBBY (20’s): Rachel’s hate/love interest. College student but leads a double life. Must be able to pull off a modified strip tease convincingly.
BUTTER-BUT: The cat. Makes a couple of appearances so if you have a cat who loves the spotlight…..
