Wally's Cafe

Point Loma Playhouse
3035 Talbot St. Point Loma

A couple opens up a small roadside diner smack-dab in the middle of the California desert, where a forthcoming highway promises to bring plenty of Las Vegas-bound traffic -- and carloads of hungry patrons with it. But when the highway ends up getting built elsewhere, Wally, his wife and their only waitress can only watch as the decades roll by. A chance encounter takes them and the audience through 40 years of friendship, dreams, heartaches, romance and four decades of ordering up Wally Burgers, coffee and laughter. Called the "best comic explosion you'll see on Broadway this season" (New York Daily News) during its 1981 debut, this "wonderful, wacky" (Associated Press) three-character comedy now comes to Point Loma Playhouse.
