HWY 12 Trippers

Church Basement Ladies

Day Trippers Dinner Theatre: Plymouth Playhouse

HILARIOUS MUSICAL COMEDY!
The Ladies are back at the Plymouth Playhouse with the musical that started it all! The church basement kitchen throughout much of America is often the heart and soul of any church. In Church Basement Ladies we meet the pastor, three kitchen cooks and one daughter who run the kitchen and care for the congregation by preparing and serving the food. Like any great kitchen, problems are solved here as well.  We see the four women handle a Lutefisk dinner, a funeral, an Easter fundraiser, and a wedding. They stave off potential disasters, have fun, share and debate recipes, instruct the young, and keep the pastor on due course. This musical comedy based on recipes, food, and change in the church is funny, heartwarming, and down to earth. It will bring back memories of many people you know from churches everywhere.

The lunch includes: Buttered Penne, Meatball Marinara Sauce, Chicken Alfredo, Caesar Salad, Buttered Green Beans, Breadsticks, Brownie Bites, Coffee & Bottled Water.

**Included in our trip will be the lunch buffet, show ticket, and charter bus fees. There are no refunds after the registration deadline has passed. Times are approximate and subject to change.
