Caroline Community Theatre proudly announces its upcoming production of The Second‑to‑Last Chance Ladies League, a heartfelt and hilarious stage comedy by the acclaimed writing trio Jessie Jones, Nicholas Hope, and Jamie Wooten. This lively sequel to Always a Bridesmaid welcomes audiences back into the world of four lifelong friends navigating life, reinvention, and the chaos of running a community events venue.
About the Show
The story follows Libby Ruth, Deedra, Monette, Charlie, and Sedalia as they reunite at their beloved Laurelton Oaks, a picturesque but well‑worn wedding venue with deep personal history. After Deedra purchases the property, the women band together to reinvent it as “Occasionally Yours,” a vibrant event center full of opportunity—and unpredictable mishaps. What begins as a fresh start quickly spirals into comedic chaos, featuring dramatic divorces, rekindled romances, midlife awakenings, and a year’s worth of wildly unforgettable events where absolutely everything that can go wrong does.
Packed with warmth, wit, and Southern charm, The Second‑to‑Last Chance Ladies League stands on its own while delighting fans of the original story. Audiences can expect a fast‑paced, feel‑good comedy celebrating friendship, resilience, and the joy of second chances.
