Sharie Valerio will be directing the final installment of the Colonial Players Pub Readings for 2012, "Who's on First" by Jack Sharkey*. Camille hosts a dinner party for her friends Don, Alice, and Ben. Don suspects Alice of cheating on him with Ben. He wishes that he could kill Ben over and over and over again for revenge. He gets his wish--the four friends repeat the 8 o'clock hour--but each time another person makes a wish. Don's revenge plot spirals absurdly out of control until the others discover that their wishes have brought on the evening's mayhem. Can they stop Don's homicidal cycle of revenge?
With twists and turns featuring magic lamps, gangsters, rubber chickens, stiff upper lips, conga lines, hillbillies, and the most hilarious and offensive trip to Nagasaki ever written, this nightmare comedy is sure to close our first pub reading series with a bang (or 20)! Stop by and enjoy theatre in a congenial atmosphere. No cover, no minimum, just fun! What more do you need to get over the Sunday Night Blues?
*This is NOT the Abbott and Costello routine.
