Kurzbeschreibung des Verlags

Through short vignettes, we see the confusion about the meaning of Easter. A 10-year-old struggles to accept her silly looking polka-dot Easter dress made by Grandma, which matches her mom's. When Dad enters, he's wearing a polka-dot tie and lapel hankie made from the same cloth! In the next scene, two moms cheer on their kids at an Easter-egg hunt. A dad enters dressed up as the "Easter Barney" (the costume store was out of bunny costumes, only Barney the Dinosaur). Other than candy, eggs, and prizes no one has a clue as to what Easter is all about. Finally a grad student daughter and mother argue about going to a family gathering at Aunt Fran's. The daughter wants to head for Florida to avoid the hassles of having to explain her broken engagement to the rest of the family and painfully reminds her mother of the shame of her recent divorce. She laments the scorn she'll receive because of how she "can't keep a man around, just like my mother." The on-stage narrator sums up at the end that despite the obvious lack of personal happiness for many, it is the empty tomb that gives us hope.Characters: 3 MALES, 5 FEMALES, 1 TEN-YEAR OLD GIRL (BY DOUBLE CASTING, ALL ADULT PARTS CAN BE PLAYED BY TWO WOMEN AND TWO MENParticipants: 9Author: Donna Lagerquist
