The show<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

This show is a sequel to \u201cFour Old Broads\u201d featuring the same characters with some wacky new friends. Against her better judgement, Lurleen Dupree is throwing the seventh annual Miss Magnolia Senior Citizen Beauty Pageant. Martha Parcell is certain that it is finally her year to win. But Beatrice, Imogene and Eaddy have other plans. Throw in a tambourine-playing squirrel, dueling Elvises, and an unfortunate spray-tanning incident and you\u2019re in for a knee-slapping, side-splitting night of light theatre.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n
