The Potomac Playmakers is proud to present Ivan Menchell’s The Cemetery Club.  Directed by Tom Doty, The Cemetery Club is a comedy of friendship, love, and companionship based on that most universal of life’s gifts, grief.

Three Jewish widows, Ida (Christine Grable), Lucille (Amy Fox), and Doris (Linda Romero), banter about their lives, loves, and losses, making once-a-month pilgrimages to their husbands’ graves. Hilarity ensues as Ida decides that grieving might not preclude getting on with her life.

The local butcher Sam (Ryan Currey) and another woman, Mildred (Lisa Hatch), play large and small roles, respectively, in Ida’s quest to uncover some happiness in her time left on earth.

Produced with kind permission of Concord Theatricals, this show is rated G for a full family friendly experience.  Performances run February 28- March 9, 2025.  Each weekend will have a Friday night performance, and Saturday and Sunday matinees. General Admission tickets for all performances are $20 and $15 for Senior Citizens aged 65 and older.  Get Tickets

Three Jewish widows meet once a month for tea before going to visit their husbands’ graves. Ida is sweet tempered and ready to begin a new life; Lucille is a feisty embodiment of the girl who just wants to have fun; and Doris is priggish and judgmental, particularly when Sam the butcher enters the scene. He meets the widows while visiting his wife’s grave. Doris and Lucille squash the budding romance between Sam and Ida. They are guilt-stricken when this nearly breaks Ida’s heart.

There will be 3 PM matinees on Saturdays and Sundays. The Friday performances are at 8 PM. Tickets HERE $20 / $15 Seniors 65+
