The ladies are back and funnier than ever! A Second Helping picks up the story in 1969 with a changing world. As Vietnam War protests swell and women everywhere demand equal pay for equal work, the ladies in the church basement kitchen face changes of their own. From the matriarch to the mom-to-be, the women find strength in each other as they deal with the changes from below the House of God!. The original production of Church Basement Ladies , inspired by the books of Janet Letnes Martin and Suzann Nelson, opened at the Plymouth Playhouse in Plymouth, Minnesota on September 8, 2005. When it closed two and a half years later - after 1,123 performances - it had been seen by more than 250,000 theater-goers. The production was such a hit with audiences, it was no surprise that the sequel opened at the Plymouth Playhouse at the beginning of 2008. During the 2023 Season, WOB audiences had the chance to meet the ladies for the first time, and as with the other theaters where the show appeared, it was a box office smash. Guests couldn't stop talking about how much fun they'd had at the show. With that in mind, WOB's producers made the only decision they could...to bring the ladies back in A Second Helping.
