Mary Moody Northen Theatre at St. Edward’s University presents
HONKY TONK ANGELS

Shoot-fire! Filled with great country classics, HONKY TONK ANGELS is a fun-filled, foot-stompin’ good time for the whole family. Darlene, Angela and Sue Ellen, three women with seemingly nothing in common, give up the monotony of their daily lives to pursue their dreams of becoming country music sensations. After meeting each other on a cross-country Greyhound bus — destination Nashville —they decide to form a band and their lives change forever. (Songs include: These Boots are Made For Walking, Stand by Your Man, Delta Dawn, 9 to 5, Amazing Grace, Coal Miner’s Daughter and Harper Valley P.T.A., to name a few.)
