THE STORY (from dramatists.com): The Futrelle Sisters,
Frankie, Honey Raye and Twink, are throwing a wedding.
Frankie has almost made herself sick with elaborate
preparations for her daughter Tina Jo’s antebellum-
inspired wedding, and the rumor mill in their small town of
Fayro, Texas, is working overtime. No surprise there, the
Futrelle Sisters have never been strangers to gossip.
After all, they did survive the scandalous breakup of their
almost-famous gospel singing trio, The Sermonettes. In
spite of her own marital problems, Frankie has held
steadfastly to the hope that she can pull off one “final
Futrelle occasion” with elegance and style with the help of
the cantankerous wedding coordinator, Miss Geneva,
who runs the local floral shop/bus depot. The sisters
ultimately pull together to find ways to keep the
unsuspecting guests in the pews while a highway
patrolman races off to track down the runaway bride and
groom. As a last resort, and to the delight of the citizenry
of Fayro, Texas, The Sermonettes reunite and sing again.
