Wearing the
Same Dress

Five bridesmaids. One wedding. And absolutely no desire to be at the reception.

 

Set during an extravagant wedding reception in Knoxville, Tennessee, Five Women Wearing the Same Dress brings together five very different bridesmaids who find themselves seeking refuge from the festivities in an upstairs bedroom.

 

As the champagne flows and the wedding celebration continues downstairs, these five women discover that they have much more in common than their identical dresses. Through hilarious conversations, unexpected confessions, sharp wit, and surprising moments of vulnerability, they reveal their secrets, challenge one another's perspectives, and confront the complicated realities of love, relationships, friendship, and life.

 

From outrageous humor to genuine tenderness, Alan Ball's irreverent comedy celebrates the unexpected connections that can emerge when five women step away from the expectations placed upon them.

 

Sometimes the most memorable part of a wedding happens upstairs!

 

Join us this June at The Town Players of Newtown Little Theatre for an evening of laughter, surprises, and unforgettable personalities.
