This all-male adaptation reshapes La Ronde as ten linked encounters among a sex worker, sailor, gardener, young gentleman, professor, partner, teenager, playwright, actor, and movie producer.
Three best friends journey through high school, college and their later lives, as they remember all of their adventures. Joanne is a sweet, naive southern girl. Mary is very confident. Kathy is the planner. Act 1: In high school in 1963, the three girls are the popular cheerleaders and are planning all of the social events. Act 2: Joanne, Mary and Kathy are in college in the late 1960s, living together in the same sorority, Kappa Kappa Gamma, still planning events. Kathy expresses confusion about what she wants to do after college. Act 3: Joanne marries Ted, her longtime boyfriend, and becomes extremely conservative. Mary opens an erotic art gallery and explores sexual liberation. Kathy ends up cynical and living day to day in New York City, with no job, and reads all of the books she was supposed to read in college. When they meet at Kathy's fabulous apartment in New York in 1974, they end up fighting. Joanne gets drunk and talks about how she never has a break from her kids and her husband Ted never lets her drink. Incensed by Joanne's sanctimonious airs, Mary reveals she has had an affair with Joanne's husband Ted. Joanne refuses to believe her and ultimately tells her, "Go fuck yourself!" and leaves the party in a huff. Kathy and Mary close the play by drinking "to forget" their "bygone days" together.
The entire musical takes place in between 1963 and 1990 with the high school scenes taking place in 1963, college scenes taking place in 1968, the penthouse scenes taking place in 1974 and the epilogue taking place in 1990.
