What do you do when your sister is a convict, your momma can't kick her Bingo habit and your husband is still missing from your Honeymoon sky-diving trip two years ago? Lock yourself in your trailer, of course. This hilarious farce is by up-and-coming playwright Amy Lanasa, winner of the Best Short Play award at the 2001 Kennedy Center/American College Theatre Festival.
