Can revenge be acquired by jilted women – mercilessly seeking a patsy for one night? Trisha and her girlfriends are out on the prowl, rebounding from past heartbreak as a series of guys line up, eager to please. When Tricia’s plans to find Mr. Right Now don’t go as planned, the evening becomes a more personal battle of the sexes. OkayBetterBest is a new musical comedy that makes the most of a fun night out as a cast of seven is put to the test of love vs. lust.
