Why are they wearing the same dress? Well, they're the bridesmaids at Tracy's wedding reception. One by one they find a reason to take a moment in Tracy's bedroom to regroup. Tracy, though, isn't there, nor is there among her five personally chosen bridesmaids one person who will admit to being her friend. But they will admit to pretty much everything else, as their girl talk gets franker by the minute and their reluctance to join the wedding reception grows stronger. In particular, they have a lot to say about men, and about sexy men, until one of those interrupts their hilarious dissection of the social scene in Knoxville, Tennessee.

The cast includes Vinnie Ali of Springfield, Carli Anderson of Audubon, NJ, Natalie Lythgoe of Media, Mary Elizabeth Quirk of Trooper, Colette Rose Scorzetti of Drexel Hill, and Gina Tomkowich of Media.

The Players Club's Raymond W. Smith stage is not handicapped-accessible.
