"Rex's Exes" at Way Off Broadway

Presented by Way Off Broadway Community Players at Way Off Broadway Community Players

Way Off Broadway Community Players presents the fourth show of our 19thth season, the Southern fried farce “Rex’s Exes” by Jones/Hope/Wooten.  The show is being directed by Tracy Cathey, assisted by Francine Barnes.  Opening night is Friday, February 26, 2016 and runs February  26, 27, March 4, 5, 11, 12, 18 and 19 at 8 pm with our Sunday Matinee, March 6, 2016 at 3 pm.

 The Story:

COMEDY: This deliriously funny Southern-fried farce finds the cousins of Sweetgum, Texas teetering on the brink of disaster. Gaynelle, frustrated and frazzled from working too many two-bit jobs, stubbornly refuses to face the fact she’s turning the Big 5-0. In a misguided effort to lift her cousin’s spirits, Peaches, who’s stuck in a romantic dry gulch, is determined to throw her a surprise birthday party. Jimmie Wy, who recently opened her Specialty Bridal Boutique, reluctantly agrees to help Peaches with the surprise. But, Surprise! Nothing goes as planned! The hilarity escalates with many twists including the return of a recently declared dead husband, who has a bounty hunter hot on his trail, an unplanned family funeral and a bitter Aunt LaMerle who wants to exact her revenge before the dirt hits the casket. As the outrageous complications of this ferociously funny comedy explodes into chaos, you’ll find yourself hoping your next family celebration—be it birthday, wedding or funeral—is even half this much fun!
