Barefoot Productions of Plymouth proudly announces Five Women Wearing the Same Dress, the fourth main stage show of the 2013-2014 season. The show will open Friday, April 25 and run for two weekends, through May 4. Friday and Saturday shows begin at 8 p.m., with Sunday matinees at 2 p.m.

Directed by Barefoot veteran Samantha Lowry, Five Women is a raunchy comedy about five reluctant bridesmaids at the wedding reception of a mutual friend. Each one of the ensemble cast of ladies has her own reason to avoid the party, and they come together to share jokes, tears, and revelations. “Unlike many shows out there,” says Lowry, “this production at times doesn’t follow a noticeable story arch, and is essentially a snapshot of these women’s lives. I think the audience will appreciate all of the comedic aspects, as well as being able to see a bit of themselves in every one of the characters.”

The script by Alan Ball is full of irreverent dialogue and clashing personalities, with a great deal of situational comedy. “It’s a very funny character study of five women who are, for their own reasons, in a wedding, and want to avoid a wedding,” says Beth Duey, who plays Georgeanne. “You will definitely be entertained, and it makes you think about your own perspective on things.”

With a small cast and the Barefoot stage only feet from the audience, Five Women has an intimate, personal feel. Jennifer Beitzel, who plays Trisha, muses, “I like that it’s a smaller cast, and it’s laid back and really cool, so it’s easier to relate to each other and get our characters to feel like real people.”

Patrons are encouraged to attend the first Saturday evening of the run, April 26th at 8pm, where a special Afterglow Reception will take place following the performance. Audience members will be treated to the show, appetizers provided by Plymouth’s famous Bode’s Corned Beef House, and a special meet & greet with the cast and crew. Five Women Wearing the Same Dress contains adult language, suggested drug and alcohol use, and brief nudity, so will not be open to those 18 and under.
