Dramatis Personae Louella (f), Judy (f), Kay
(f)
Synopsis "Louella calls her two best friends
to an empty church to reveal her latest, irresistible get-rich-quick
scheme: upbeat memorial services complete with food, gossip about
the dearly departed, and rousing renditions of 'The Beer Barrel
Polka,' all done with impeccable taste, of course. So why are
her friends resisting? Judy should be honored that she is being
asked to provide the heavenly harp/accordion music. And it is
not as if Kay really has to give up her life for the business-just
play dead for a few weeks."
Themes church, fraud, memorial, musician.
