Directed by Associate Professor of Theatre Dr. Teresa Durbin-Ames, the performances are staged in Ashland University's Hugo Young Theatre for 7:30 p.m. curtains on Feb. 17, 18, 24, 25, and at 2 p.m. on Sunday, Feb. 19.

This comical, restorative journey of discovery follows two frustrated London housewives and two very different English women who decide to rent a villa in Italy for a holiday away from their bleak lives. Traveling from darkness to light, and from inhibition to unrestrained joy, the women rediscover themselves in ways that they could never have expected.
