In this play about found family and yearning to go some place you can never find, a group of people work at a cemetery in the fictional Ashworth, New Hampshire; some wish they were elsewhere and others are perfectly happy to be miserable where they are.
Ronnie used to be married to Bobby, who is unhappily married to Ricky. Mike plays drums in a wedding band on the weekend and can't stop talking about the song "Pour Some Sugar on Me." Johnny shows up at the cemetery surreptitiously recording a podcast called "Welcome to AshTown." They all work together digging holes and passing the time.
When the WalMart of cemeteries opens across the street everybody begins to worry about losing their jobs so they plan to put on a production of Three Sisters to raise money to buy the cemetery themselves.
