The darkly comic and harrowing story of Maybelline Ferris, a damaged young woman living with her pregnant sister Saralee and her forlorn husband, Duke, in their run-down family home north of Nashville. As the play begins, Karen, a close friend of Maybellines jailed older sister, marches into the house with the news that Doolee James kid came into Kindercastle today with a black eye.
