“Rex’s Exes,” which bills itself as “The Southern-fried mid-life crisis comedy,” opens 7 p.m. March 20 at McMillin Theater inside TheaterWorks, 10580 N 83rd Dr., Peoria.
The show runs through April 12.
“(This) comedy finds the Verdeen cousins of Sweetgum, Texas—Gaynelle, Peaches and Jimmie Wyvette—teetering on the brink of disaster again,” a theater news release states of the storyline. “Seen in last season’s Red Velvet Cake War, The Verdeen’s are back at it again with this seriously silly play, this time Gaynelle’s 50th birthday party is at the center of the hilarious antics. As the outrageous complications of this ferociously funny Jones-Hope-Wooten comedy explode into chaos, you’ll find yourself hoping your next family celebration—be it birthday, wedding or funeral—is even half this much fun.”
