This poignant and delightfully funny comedy centers around three Jewish widows who meet once a month for tea before going to visit their husbands’ graves. Ida is sweet tempered and ready to begin a new life, Lucille is the feisty embodiment of the girl who just wants to have fun, and Doris is conservative and judgmental, particularly when Sam the butcher enters the scene. Will one woman’s second chance at love bring them all closer together or tear these best friends apart?

    "Great Local Theatre"

    This was my 2nd NTC show and I was once again impressed with the caliber of its performances. Great acting, good storyline and intimate venue made for a terrific Girls Night Out.

    Besides being a funny but tender script, the ensemble work of the lead women, Ida, Lucille, and Doris, is warm and genuine and very moving. This is one more example of excellent theater in our area. Space has been used well to create a perfect set that is visually lovely and effective for the many moods the actors portray in this very human story. Collapse

    Although preview night was a bit bumpy with some line issues and pacing, ultimately this is a great script and once is gels, you will likely see the potential that a great story, great emotion, solid casting, vulnerable acting, and creative staging can have. The laughter is as strong as the drama well balanced in the script and in the performance. This is likely going to appeal to a older crowd but I still found it charming in many ways, even if I couldn't identify with all of the characters all the time. Collapse
