Alan Ball's hilarious play set at the home of the bride in Knoxville, Tennessee, features five bridesmaids (and one usher) finding refuge in an upstairs bedroom during the newly married couple's ostentatious wedding reception. These women come to realize that despite their differences, they have more in common with each other than any of them do with the bride.
