Coquitlam’s Stage 43 Theatrical Society swings out a comedy about friendship — and golfing — for its last show of the season.
Opening next Thursday at the Evergreen Cultural Centre, The Ladies Foursome tells the tale of Margot, Tate and Connie the day after their friend’s funeral.
But while reminiscing on the course, the trio is joined by another golfer — a friend of their late friend — and, over 18 holes, they spill secrets about love, sex, kids and other private details of their lives.
Penned by Canadian playwright Norm Foster, The Ladies Foursome is inspired by the play The Foursome and stars Stage 43 veterans Colleen Bignell (Tate), Michelle Berg (Margot), Angela Bell (Dory) and Tiffany Markwart (Connie).
It’s also directed by another familiar face to the company: Port Moody resident Dale Kelly who, last month, directed Vagabond Players’ production of 4000 Miles (Kelly is also a CTC Best Actor award winner).
The Ladies Foursome concludes Stage 43’s Sit, Sing and Swing! season, which also included A Bench in the Sun (in October) and The Fantasticks (in January).
