Sunday Costs Five Pesos
Bring your date, your spouse, or the rest of the family to this romantic comedy for Valentine's week!
Trouble brews in Old Mexico, when Fidel's wife-to-be Berta suspects a love triangle. A plot hatched by her meddling friends to fix the situation backfires, and the village erupts into hilarious mayhem.
This famous script by Mexican-American playwright Josephina Niggli once featured Bettie Page in its off-Broadway cast, and is still certain to entertain!
WITH: An Opening Act of humorous scenes and monologues on the theme of love, marriage, and relationships.
