From the opening moments when Ivah cuts Violet's eye brows off, this story romps through the sibling antics and rivalry of a large family
The first act takes place as the young teenage girls are growing into lovely women
In a series of family stories, set in the 1920s, we enjoy the girls' hilarious pranks, antics, joys and humiliations
There is laughter in abundance
Tears, love, and sibling rivalry as these four delightful sisters grow up under the guidance of their matriarch, 'Mama'
A prestigious marriage, a female pro-basketball player, and a run away to Alaska, these young women couldn't be more diverse
Fast forward to the 1940s
The sisters are adults, starting their own families and Pearl Harbor has just been attacked
The Guyer Girls are the children of Sophia and Levi Guyer who migrated to America and then moved out West
The stage play is a rich tapestry of an American family spanning three decades and based upon the true story of the Guyer family
