Happy Trails Senior Resort Living in Surprise, AZ is where the ladies of the Happy Trails Baking Club meet weekly, swapping desserts and recipes. But when these four friends start swapping stories about their first time, one of them bakes up an idea- to take a road trip across the country, revisiting each location where they lost their virginities. Tears, laughter, memories and secrets are all revealed as each lady shares the details about their first time. Will revisiting the past alter their futures? The Lost Virginity Tour is about friendship, heartache, regrets and first loves.
The Lost Virginity Tour is written by Cricket Daniel, Bend Local and CTC Board Member.

CAST BREAKDOWN: (OPEN TO ALL WOMEN OF ALL ORIGINS – “types” below are merely suggestions)
VIOLA – (late 50’s – mid 60’s) sexy, single, 4X divorcee in the best shape of her life thanks to Pilates. Tough but vulnerable, mouthy Italian from New Jersey. Think Joy Behar, Leah Remini or older Marisa Tomei from “My Cousin Vinny” with a little Lanie Kazan thrown in.
KITTY – (late 50’s – mid 60’s) Single, sweet Southern Belle from North Carolina. Curvy, guarded woman from a privileged background who is trying to quit smoking after losing a lot of weight. Needs to forgive herself so she can move forward. Think Jean Smart from “Designing Women”, Dolly Parton, or Christina Hendricks from “Mad Men”.
RITA – (late 50’s – mid 60’s) Efficient, put-together, married, smart, grounded type. The “good” girl of the bunch who refers to losing her virginity as “The Situation” but married him nonetheless. Think Justina Machado, Phylicia Rashad, Salma Hayek, Michelle Pfeiffer or Meryl Streep.
ELAINE – (late 50’s – mid 60’s) Widow, oldest of the four and wisest. Composed with loads of sage advice. While her heart belonged to her husband, it ached for her first love. Think Cicely Tyson, Rita Moreno, Jane Fonda, Michelle Yeoh or Dame Judi Dench.
