Derby Dinner Playhouse to Stage SOUTHERN FRIED FUNERAL

Derby Dinner Playhouse will present the comedy, SOUTHERN FRIED FUNERAL, January 12 through February 21, 2016.

Funerals bring out the best, the worst, and the funniest in people, and the Frye family is no exception. SOUTHERN FRIED FUNERAL is a big-hearted comedy about family, southern style! When Dorothy should be grieving the sudden (and absurd) death of her husband, instead she is playing referee for her simple son Dewey, her type-A daughter Sammy Jo, her wild child Harlene, and her brother-in-law Dub. Throw in some nosy neighbors, well-intentioned but comical friends, and a lawyer with ulterior motives, and this comedy will keep you laughing!

SOUTHERN FRIED FUNERAL was written by Osborne and Eppler. Derby Dinner's production was directed by Bekki Jo Schneider. The cast will include Tina Jo Wallace, Janet Essenpreis, Brian Bowman, Colette Delaney, Annette McCulloch, Bill Hanna, Cary Wiger, J.R. Stuart, and more!
