A hilarious, heartfelt comedy about friendship, second chances, and starting over.
Four very different Southern women find themselves at a crossroads in life. After an unexpected meeting at a yoga class, they come together for an impromptu happy hour that blossoms into a weekly gathering filled with laughter, cocktails, romantic misadventures, and life-changing revelations. As they navigate personal setbacks and unexpected new beginnings, these women discover that it’s never too late to reinvent yourself—or find your people.
We are seeking four dynamic performers with strong comedic instincts, excellent timing, and the ability to balance broad comedy with genuine emotional depth. Distinct Southern character voices are required.


Performances: January 8 through 31, 2027 

Thurs–Sat at 7:30pm

Sundays at 2:00pm

Saturday matinees January 16th  and 30th at 2:00pm


Rehearsals at Cabrillo Playhouse

We welcome and encourage performers of ALL races, ages, gender identities, abilities, body types and ethnicities to audition.

There is a $100 stipend offered 

Age 49 – A polished, driven, perfectionistic career woman whose carefully ordered life has suddenly gone off the rails. Randa is accustomed to being in control and excelling at everything she does, but a career setback forces her to confront the fact that she has no idea how to enjoy life outside of work. Needs a confident, precise comic actor who can play tightly wound perfectionism, social awkwardness, and the gradual discovery of spontaneity and fun.

Age 69 – A sweet, gentle, and somewhat reserved widow who is struggling to imagine a future without her late husband. The retirement years she had envisioned have been turned upside down, leaving her to face loneliness, uncertainty, and the challenge of discovering who she is on her own. Needs a warm, nuanced performer with excellent character-comedy skills. The role calls for vulnerability, understated humor, and a willingness to step outside a quiet, conventional comfort zone.

Age 57 – A boisterous, earthy, outspoken Texas woman who has landed in Savannah after discovering that her unfaithful husband has left her for a much younger woman. Marlafaye is full of attitude, colorful opinions, and a desire for revenge. Beneath her larger-than-life personality is a woman determined to reclaim her independence. Needs a bold, high-energy comic performer with strong physical comedy, a vivid character voice, and the ability to turn outrageous bravado into genuine heart.

Age 53 – A lively, enthusiastic ball of energy who offers her services as a life coach to help the other women get their lives back on track. Armed with boundless optimism and a seemingly endless supply of advice, Jinx is determined to transform everyone around her while remaining blissfully unaware that she may need a little guidance herself. Needs an energetic, charismatic performer with sharp comic timing, physical expressiveness, and the ability to play relentless positivity while revealing the vulnerability underneath.
