– “Not Now, Darling” (Sept. 22 to Nov. 5)
This madcap farce features mistresses, minks, mobsters, mistaken identities, misguided shoppers, suspicious wives and scantily clad women hiding in cupboards.

It’s sweet. It’s savory. It’s five strangers putting their hearts, reputations and baking skills on the line to become the crème de la crème of bakers at a county fair.

– “Doublewide Texas” (Feb. 23 to April 9)
In this hilarious, fast-paced comedy, the inhabitants of one of the smallest trailer parks in Texas are thrown for a loop when they realize the nearby town of Tugaloo is determined to annex them.

– “Always A Bridesmaid” (April 18 to May 20)
Four high school friends promised to be in each other’s weddings no matter what, not realizing that over 30 years later, these Southern friends-for-life would still be making the walk down the aisle to honor that vow. Hop on this marriage-go-round for a laugh-out-loud journey with these struggling bridesmaids as they navigate the choppy waters of love and matrimony.
