Daughters of the Lone Star State
by Del Shores
Synopsis
This is the third of the Lowake, Texas series from the author of Daddy's Dyin' (Who's Got the Will?) and Cheatin'.
It's the day before Christmas Eve and The Daughters of the Lone Star State are having their annual meeting.
The old group is dying out, literally, so this year's effort to attract members is all out.
When "white trash" and "coloreds" arrive, chaos erupts.
This funny but biting play is a wonderful challenge for an all female ensemble.
Nine characters are over 50 years old.
