Exit Laughing
April 23 - May 4, 2025
Exit Laughing is a comedic play intended for mature audiences. The play, written by Paul Elliott, revolves around the lives of three women: Connie, Leona, and Millie, who have been friends for decades. Their weekly bridge game takes an unexpected turn when their fourth member, Mary, passes away. They decide to have one last bridge game to honor their dear friend. Chaos ensues as the women navigate an unconventional farewell, leading to hilarious and heartwarming moments. They encounter various challenges, including a run-in with the law, but through laughter and tears, they rediscover the value of friendship and the importance of living life to the fullest. The play beautifully balances humor with touching reflections on love, loss, and the enduring bonds that sustain us through life's difficulties.
