On New Years' Day in a diner just off Texas Highway 59, a unique cast of hilarious yet troubled characters first meet, led by the irrepressible Barbie, a charismatic big-haired lingerie saleswoman who has never bothered to grow up, is desperate to start her life over. She meets first Persephone, the sweet, lonely proprietor of the diner; then Kenneth, a young man on his own quest of self-discovery; and finally is reconnected with her nouveau-respectable sister Annette, who is determined to force Barbie Ann to face up to her responsibilities. Heartbreak and hilarity ensues. Lone Star Grace is a new play by Suzanne Bradbeer and directed by Giovanna Sardelli, both from New York City. Underwritten in part by the Nantucket Arts Council.

Featuring Susan McGinnis, Laurel Devaney, Susan Beaumont and Ciaran Byrne.
