Description Five Southern women whose friendships began many years ago on their college swim team, meet every year on a long weekend in August to recharge their relationships, free from husbands and children. They meet at the same beach cottage on North Carolina's Outer Banks.
The play focuses on four of these weekends and spans thirty-three years. As their lives unfold and the years pass, these women increasingly rely on one another to get through life's challenges.
