Directed by: Hannah Sizemore
Show Description: In this fast-paced, feel-good comedy, four lifelong friends—Libby Ruth, Deedra, Monette, and Charlie—reunite at Laurelton Oaks, now reimagined as “Occasionally Yours,” an all-purpose event venue. As they dive into running the business together, chaos ensues: Monette navigates yet another wild divorce, Charlie faces a late-blooming midlife crisis, Libby Ruth juggles college with her husband’s unexpected romantic revival, and Deedra battles the controlling former owner who won’t let go.
Over the course of one uproarious year, the women host baby showers, memorials—even a surprise wedding—where everything that can go wrong does. A sequel to Always a Bridesmaid (but hilarious on its own), this Jones Hope Wooten comedy is a celebration of friendship, second chances, and unstoppable Southern charm.
Show dates are: August 15 – 23, 2025
