The Jungle Theater's synopsis of Lone Star Spirits: When Marley brings her new fiancé to her childhood home in small-town Texas, she finds herself stranded in the past. Hoping for a quick visit to her estranged father's liquor store, she's soon forced to deal with her football hero ex-boyfriend, a single mom insistent on a girls' night out, and the ghost of the town's bear-wrestling pioneer founder.
