your spouse?

Act Two: A Lovely Day for a Boating Trip (and to escape your own wedding)

Directed by Carol Ann Tan

Two best friends, one wedding and only one means of escape. A bride will test the limits of
friendship and learns some hard truths in the process.

Act Three: A Lovely Day for a Boating Trip (and to get rid of a body)

An afternoon boating trip is a wonderful way to bond with your boyfriend's disapproving Grandmother. That is, until dead bodies start turning up.
