The Cemetery Club
by Bastrop Opera House
Jan. 11 - Jan. 26, 2019
Fridays-Sundays
Three Jewish widows 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 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.
"Funny, sweet tempered, moving." - The Boston Globe
"Very touching and humorous. An evening of pure pleasure that will make you glad you went to the theatre." - Washington Journal Newspapers
