If you love to laugh, after taking a journey to the Deep South with us, come take yet another voyage to Queens, New York to see The Cemetery Club, also in March-April at The Canyon Theatre Guild. In this comedy, three Jewish widows meet once a month for tea to reminisce about the good ole’ days before going to visit their husbands’ graves. Ida is very congenial and is ready to begin anew; Lucille is very spirited and just wants to have a good time; and Doris is straight-laced, proper, and very critical. And the real shenanigans begin when a member of the opposite sex appears. Director Mike Moffat does a great job conveying this tale and bringing it to life. He states “The Cemetery Club is so hilarious; you must come down to the theatre to see it. This hilarious show is about three good friends who share similarities with one other but who have real differences, and they form little alliances and gang up on one another throughout the show. The interpersonal changes that the characters go through are very comedic. This is truly a story about how long-term relationships can change over time. The characters are all very complex as there are no shallow characters in this story”. Played by an amazing cast, this hysterical good-natured comedy will leave you laughing all night long. Tickets prices are $19 for Adults, and $17 for Juniors (Under 18) and Seniors (Over 62) in rows 1-10 and $17 for Adults and $15 for Juniors and Seniors in rows 11-back.
