It's about a group of die-hard bingo players who stop at nothing to miss their weekly game
In between the number calling, strange rituals and fierce competitions, love blossoms and long lost friends re-unite
These lovable characters spring to life with a smart, funny script and audiences will be laughing in the aisles when they aren't playing games of bingo along with the cast!
Best friends and Bingo pals Vern, Honey and Patsy brave a terrible storm in order to attend the yearly celebration of the birth of Bingo and tribute to its founder, Edwin S. Lowe
As the storm knocks out power at the Bingo Hall, Patsy and Honey remind each other of the ominous night fifteen years ago that began in the same way
In flashback, Honey tells us about the night Vern and her best friend, Bernice, had their falling out
Bernice's sweet, yet headstrong daughter, Alison, enters the Bingo hall in disguise - Bernice's health is failing, and Alison is determined, with the help of Bingo, to reunite her mother with her long-lost best friend
