The Blue Plate Special
Order up! From the creative minds of Corrie Milne, RV Quijano, and
Louise Jamieson, 'The Blue Plate Special' has prepared to serve you a
little bit of everything with a fifties flair. Follow these three
heartfelt stories as they express the significance of human connection.
Show 1: bed & breakfast.
Welcome to Visto's Bed & Breakfast -- a short-stay accommodation where the broken-hearted stay to relax, recuperate, and heal. Whether it be from romance, friendships, or a loss of belonging, guests check in from all walks of life with all kinds of heartbreak. Come along and witness the stories of these guests, and the baggage they've brought with them.
Show 2: Heartaches
What would you do to see the people you've lost again? For young housewife Evelyn it involves enlisting in an experimental government program that lets her relive her memories of her late husband. Heartaches is a story of grief and loss that explores the struggles of letting yourself move on.
Show 3: Shake Shake Shake!
Step back to the 1950s at the Shake Haven, where rock and roll reigns
supreme! In this lively diner, a waitress and chef serve up their famous
milkshakes as locals jive away their worries. But when a troublesome
gang arrives, expect jazz, swing, and heartwarming serenades in this
toe-tapping show!
