On the porch of the house she's lived in for forty-two years, a recent widow faces a predatory real estate offer designed to strip her of her home and her land, and finds, in her formidable sister-in-law, the strength to refuse it.

In rural Florida, recently widowed Reli prepares to sell the family home with the help of her blunt, steady sister-in-law Sue. When realtor Charlotte Goodwell arrives, her folksy charm gradually reveals a predatory pitch: the house is worthless, but a mining company will pay handsomely to demolish it and strip the land. "Right Pretty Day" is a domestic drama about family, memory, and grieving.

Right Pretty Day

    The world Glenn Schudel creates is lived in and visceral. In RIGHT PRETTY DAY, you can just feel the Florida heat, even in a comfort of an air conditioned theatre. This play is full of grief but also full of women who decide that they won't go down without a fight. With all of it's southern hospitality charm, under the surface the stakes could not be higher! I read an early draft of Right Pretty Day, and if you are looking for a play with outstanding female parts, definitely check this out!
