"The Girls of the Garden Club" is a comedy that centers around Rhoda Greenleaf and her quest for the presidency of the Ho Ho Kus Little Lake Garden Club. Standing in her way is the incumbent president, Lillybelle, who peppers her speech with French phrases and "is a general pain in the neck," said the show's director, Lisa Dunn. Throughout the play, Rhoda Greenleaf plots to oust Lillybelle, and install herself as president as she pushes husband, children, and home aside in pursuit of her quest.
