A comedy by Beth Henley Directed by Jdee Early
In the small Mississippi town of Brookhaven, a few days before the Fourth of July. Carnelle Scott is rehearsing furiously for the Miss Firecracker Contest—hoping that a victory will salvage her tarnished reputation and allow her to leave town in a blaze of glory. The unexpected arrival of her cousin Elain, complicates matters a bit, as does the repeated threat of Elain’s eccentric brother, Delmount, to sell the family homestead. Aided by several other cheerfully nutty characters, Carnelle perseveres— leading to a denouement of unparalleled hilarity, compassion and moving lyricism.
