The Theatre-Goers Book Club's September 2024 play script review is the comedy:
In-Laws, Outlaws, and Other People (That Should Be Shot)
by Steve Franco
It is 6pm and the Douglas family is busily preparing for their annual Christmas Eve dinner. After robbing a neighborhood liquor store, high strung and irritable Tony, and his dim-witted side-kick Vinny, find themselves in need of a hide-out.
A comic treasure that is sure to leave your audience in stitches
while celebrating the true meaning of Christmas.
* The playbook is not available as a free downloadable document; It is available via Amazon and other booksellers or check with your public library.

The Theatre-Goers Book Club, originally named the Playscript Readers Group, was formed in 2015 as an extension of the Cresswind Neighborhood Theatre.
In addition to the primary focus of reading and analyzing plays, the additional
element of attending a live performance at a local theatre is a great way to share
insights and appreciate all dimensions of the theatre experience.
What a great way to celebrate and support our local theatres!
