Witty, fast-paced dialogue, and endearing characters everyone will recognize bring small-town Canada to life in this charming and hilarious play. Sadie Flynn, a convicted husband-killer just released from prison, gets off the bus at Millie’s Cabin cafe, a meeting-place where the problems of everyday life are dissected. She is taken on as a waitress by the owner, ex-hockey-player and ladies’ man Tom Shaw, and the gossip mill cranks up several notches. Strange things start happening, and Tom begins to wonder whether Sadie is sweet or sinister. Why does Orson’s coin collection arouse more than interest among the ladies? What have Annie Oakley and the Lone Ranger to do with the butt-shooting incidents? Non-stop laughter is guaranteed.

"Filled with laughter, spiced with sex, and peopled with characters who are fun to meet." - Fredericton Daily Gleaner
