The play follows five women through their changing marital status. The stories are all based on the playwrights’ real-life experiences.
Beth copes with anger and grief after losing her pilot-husband in a plane crash, tries online dating, and senses a new chance for love as she gets ready for her first date in 25 years
Freshly divorced Laurie over-analyzes a minor encounter with a single man, then settles for a dog
Chloe tunes out her father’s warnings and walks down the aisle anyway, and after her divorce confronts her loneliness
Eddie (aka Edie) accepts an impromptu marriage proposal from a man she meets in a laundromat, then has an epiphany about marriage during therapy
New mother Chris wants only a back rub from her horny husband, and fantasizes about her life without attachments.
