In this laugh out loud Texas Farce, the Futrelle Sisters are in trouble – again. Their beloved hometown, Fayro, is in danger of disappearing, and it’s up to the sisters to save it from extinction! Ever since the Super SmartMart and the rendering plant closed, folks have been leaving in droves. But a solution is at hand! A salsa factory is looking to relocate, and they are coming to town on a scouting mission. Unbelievable promises are made in order to woo the rep to choose Fayro—such as that on the very weekend of the rep’s visit, the town just happens to be having their biggest celebration of the year: “Fayro Days”, which includes a craft show, a pet costume parade, a beauty pageant and a huge Civil War battle reenactment…with only 15 people! So now it’s up to the remaining citizens of Fayro to quickly make these promises a reality. Added to this is the dilemma of a desperate bride-to- be attempting to practically drag her unwilling groom to the altar, a husband’s mid-life crisis coinciding with his wicked old Aunt’s visit – and the panic as she drops dead – right before the Salsa Rep comes to town. But everyone pulls together to save their town in a testament to Southern strength and ingenuity—and a recipe for total hilarity!
