    The school year has ended and four middle-school teachers from Arkansas are brooding about their less-than-exciting summer plans. Janet, Fran, Sue Ellen, and Aimee - diverse in age, background, and temperament - all share the concern that life is passing them by. Then Janet wins big on a scratch-off lottery ticket and decides to treat herself and her friends to a well-deserved vacation. With high hopes for adventure and a taste of the good life, the foursome boards a grand cruise ship headed to the Caribbean, and a whirlwind week unfurls. In comical discord, they do their best to navigate the ship and keep up with the action. Fran and Sue Ellen make a drunken handshake deal, Janet gets a makeover, and Captain's Night turns into a fiasco. Aimee spills her secrets, a shore excursion goes off course, and an evening of karaoke proves empowering. By week's end, the ocean air is crackling with romance, the women having learned more about themselves than they could have ever imagined. And while not all is well in their world, they return to port triumphant and forever changed by a fierce sisterhood that will see them through anything.

    It is the 1950s, a time when the post-war American family can finally enjoy peace and prosperity. The automobile industry has exploded and America is on the move in the family car. June and Doc Bullard are the long-time proprietors of Bullard's Motor Court, a neat row of quaint tourist cottages on Route 66 in southwest Missouri. Famous for their biscuits and their hospitality, the Bullards and their faithful cook, Bernice, have a thriving business going. But when a shady character by the name of Wendell Sutton comes along, the unsuspecting couple is conned into making a bad business decision - one which makes Wendell their boss and sets into motion a chain of unpredictable fiascos. When an unrelenting rainstorm maroons some of the guests, friendships form, romance blossoms, marriage vows are tested, and secrets unfold. While destinies are being altered, June and Doc face more anxiety over a new interstate coming through, which could mean only one of two things. Were they sitting on a gold mine, looking at a lifetime of prosperity, or would the motor court be bypassed, fading into obscurity on the side of the road? While "The Big Tickle" chronicles the very real story about the demise of mom-and-pop establishments along Route 66, it is more a story about friendship. With its nostalgic setting and a charming cast of characters, this lively story will tug at your emotions, make you laugh, and surprise you often...right up to its delightful conclusion.
