Another Saturday Night

Play

Overview

Synopsis

The play begins in the 1960s when two young lovers are forced to part. We then move to the present day and the interior of a Singles Bar where a group of middle aged people are gathered. They include divorced people, single people, separated people and a widow. With the aid of pop songs we learn of their troubles, their hopes and their dreams. Will one couple resolve their differences and come back together? Will two singles become a couple? Will the widow succumb to the lothario and will the two youngsters we met at the beginning finally rekindle the love they once had? With songs and laughter (and a few tears) all is resolved at the end. (Or is it?)

Editor's Note: This is a play with music.
