Rosa Rugosa

A Short Play
By Jim Dalglish

What could be so difficult about pulling off a last-minute wedding in a quaint Portuguese fishing village on the tip of Cape Cod?  Especially if you’re a Texan beauty pageant winner with an MBA in time management.

"I want something very unique. So unique it’s never been seen before. Because that’s what our love is. Unique." - Krissi
