A little bit about this sweet show with the ridiculously long title:
“Just outside Pennington Gap, Virginia, the roads are flooded, the bridges are washed out, and less generous souls are staying safely indoors; but it takes more than a little rain to keep the ladies of the Charitable Sisterhood from fulfilling their sworn mission. Bea Littleton is the pastor’s wife; Lorraine Jensen is the tireless mother of nine; Tina Yates is the transplanted Yankee; Janet Murchison is the newest arrival. When these ladies meet to organize a relief effort for homeless Guatemalans, they are greeted with a small mountain of community donations–but one woman’s junk is another woman’s treasure, and that pile of stuff in this little church basement is hiding a thing or two…”
Open roles:
TINA YATES, in her late 30s to 40s, a transplanted Yankee (from Baltimore). Married, no children.
LORRAINE JENSEN, 40s. Lifelong resident of the area, nine children at last count. We are looking for a Virginia drawl for Lorraine.
