ABOUT THE SHOW:
The Futrelle Sisters - Frankie, Twink, Honey Raye and Rhonda Lynn -
are in trouble again. Their beloved hometown, Fayro, Texas, is in
danger of disappearing, and it's up to the sisters to save it from
extinction. Ever since the Super SmartMart and the rendering plant
closed, folks have been leaving Fayro in droves, but Honey Raye, with
a major assist from her former nemesis, Geneva Musgrave, has come up
with a possible solution. It seems a salsa manufacturing factory is
looking to relocate and a company representative is headed to Fayro on
a scouting mission.
Honey Raye, as the president of the Chamber of Commerce, makes
promises that are not to be believed in order to woo the rep to choose
Fayro. In fact, Honey Raye has told them that on the very weekend of
the rep's visit, the town just happens to be having their biggest
celebration of the year: 'Fayro Days', which includes a craft show, a
pet costume parade, a beauty pageant and a huge Civil War battle
reenactment. So now it's up to the citizens of Fayro to quickly make
her promises a reality.
Added to this is the dilemma of Twink being so desperate to get
married that she's practically dragging the unwilling groom, Deputy
John Curtis Buntner, to the altar. But this pales next to the
financial problems the preacher and his wife are having - unless you
don't consider gambling away your mobile home a problem. Frankie’s
husband, Dub, is going through a major mid-life crisis at the same
time her five-year-old twins are literally tearing up the town.
And unfortunately for all of them, the 'meanest woman in twelve
counties', Dub's wicked, old Aunt Iney, is on her way for a visit.
Iney's arrival in Fayro is definitely cause for alarm for the sisters;
but it's nothing compared to their panic when the old girl drops dead
in the Dubberly home just before the salsa rep shows up. But how the
Futrelle sisters and the other citizens of Fayro, including sweet,
simple, Raynerd Chisum, pull together and save their town is a
testament to Southern strength and ingenuity - and a recipe for total
hilarity.
