Last Round Up of the Guacamole Queens

In this deliciously funny Southern-fried comedy, the Verdeen cousins of Sweetgum, Texas Gaynelle (Diane Wilcox), Peaches (Andrea McDonough), and Jimmie Wyvette (Amy Beane) are up against the clock as they frantically attempt to produce the ultimate high school reunion before the old building is demolished. But they've got a bushel of obstacles to overcome before they can pull off this miracle: Gaynelle is reeling from the humiliating demise of her loathed ex-husband; Peaches romantic life has tanked because the older her dates get, the more horrified they are by her job as a mortuarial cosmetologist; and Jimmie Wyvette is trying to live down her on-camera catfight with a local televangelist, Dixie Davenport (Megan Ellis). To top it all off, the cousins have got to impress a governors aide, Tanzie Lockhart (also Megan Ellis) with their party-planning capabilities, so that they can nab the job of throwing the governor's birthday bash and keep their business afloat. Their scramble to prepare the perfect event is interrupted by the exploits of their beloved Uncle Aubrey (Adam Newmark), who is in danger of getting throttled by the two octogenarian sisters, Della Crowder (Piper Woodring) and Ennis Crowder Puckett (Bobbi Jo Scott) who he's simultaneously romancing, and by threats from their self-righteous Aunt LaMerle (Toni Berke), who is determined to be crowned the final and forever Guacamole Queen of Sweetgum High. And that's before one of Peaches former classmates, Dewey Davenport (Gavin McGee) arrives with his best friend, Obediah No Last Name, in tow and a score to settle, Jimmie Wyvette hog-ties the sherrif, Grover Lout (Shane Lee Miller) with police tape, the high school gym is blown away, and the desperate battle for Guacamole Queen heats up into an outrageous fight to the finish. Other notable performances include Vicki Klinger as CeCe Windham and Zach Cole as Raynard Chisum. This performance is rated PG-13. All tickets at the door will be $16. This performance is rated PG-13.
