Synopsis: | Nipples To The Wind is an old southern expression meaning 'chin up, chest out.' The comedy consists of such characters as a woman fighting the onslaught of middle-age while swatting flies on the front porch, a woman who was involved once in a production and now think she is God's gift to the theatre, a matriarch of a dysfunctional family writing her annual Christmas newsletter, an ill-equipped substitute school teacher, a pair of chaperoning grannies at a middle school dance, a mother at odds with her 13 year old daughter, three sisters at confession, each telling their own version of the same family event, a narcissistic suicide hotline operator, and a pair of over the top 'Tammy Kay' make-up consultants on a singles cruise. Scene changes include original humorous music, mostly written by Nashville recording artist, Kacey Jones. Original Soundtrack recording available through retailers. | |||||
