March 5th - 12th, 2020





In the sleepy hamlet of Noble Bay, California,
divorcee Elaine 'Lainie' Fairbanks (played by JEFFREY VAUSE)
struggles to keep her sanity while her best friends (JIMMY MOON, LENYS SAMÁ) and an out-of-town drifter (BEN VAN BERKUM) conspire to change her life forever! Thank God for her daughter Trippy (KIM KRANE) & Trippy's boyfriend Logan (MAYA BASSUK) - or are they part of the problem too?
TOMORROW WE LOVE is a gender-bending, comedic homage to the classic romantic films of the mid-twentieth century.
