Desperate times call for desperate measures…and with problems so desperately familiar, join with Toni and Maggie as they navigate their own cost of living crisis!
Incensed by ever-increasing high prices at the supermarket, the locals take matters into their own hands. Outrage turns into demonstrations and riots at supermarkets, which ends in a shoplifting spree.
On her way home Toni bumps into her friend Maggie, who promises to help find creative ways to hide the loot. From then on it's one crazy disaster after another. Especially when the police arrive!
An Amateur Production By Arrangement with ORIGIN (TM) Theatrical, on behalf of Samuel French Inc. - A Concord Theatricals Company
