The Story

The air conditioning is broken. The wine is open. And the Cross family of Texas, a quick-lube empire with too many rooms and even more secrets, has gathered for a will reading that will change everything. Resurrections. Confessions. A long-lost relative. A pool boy who knows too much. And soapy surprises along the way.

Glamour. Betrayal. Heat. And one daughter who is determined to finish her song. Whether we like it or not. It’s an homage to all the soaps that kept us glued to our sets back when appointment viewing was mandatory.
