THE CEMETERY CLUB By Ivan Menchell
Three Jewish widows meet once a month for tea before going to visit their husbands’ graves. Ida is sweet-tempered and ready to begin a new life. Lucille is a feisty embodiment of the girl who just wants to have fun. Doris is priggish and judgmental, particularly when Sam the butcher enters the scene. Doris and Lucille squash the budding romance between Sam and Ida but are guilt-stricken when this nearly breaks Ida’s heart. A touching and humorous exploration of friendship, loss and finding love again later in life. It was made into a film, starring Ellen Burstyn, Dianne Ladd, and Olympia Dukkakis.
Funny, sweet-tempered, moving…The Boston Globe
“Very touching and humorous. An evening of pure pleasure that will make you glad you went to the theatre.” Washington Journal Newspapers
