Ever "discovered" something in your husband's sweater drawer that made you run away from home? Cass did! A firm believer in destiny, she boards the bus to Niagara Falls armed with a "things to do in life" list. With husband Kip in hot pursuit, Cass journeys through a series of absurd encounters with eccentric characters. Lindsay-Abaire's madcap imagination and snappy dialogue will keep you laughing!

Kate Lottinville and William Heafer play Karla and Glen, and Mark Romano plays Captain Mike. Other cast members include Jesse Glasgow, Kate Garst, Gabrielle Stewart, Darrin Hemmer and Steve Lenz.
