Comedy / Casting: 6m, 1f / Scenery: Composite Int.
At the time of a paralyzing drought in the West we discover a
girl whose father and two brothers are worried as much about her
becoming an old maid as they are about their dying cattle. For the
truth is, she is indeed a plain girl. The brothers try every
possible scheme to marry her off, but without success. Nor is there
any sign of relief from the dry heat. When suddenly from out of
nowhere appears a picaresque character with a mellifluous tongue
and the most grandiose notions a man could imagine. He claims to be
a rainmaker. And he promises to bring rain, for $100. It's a silly
idea, but the rainmaker is so refreshing and ingratiating that the
family finally consent. Forthwith they begin banging on big brass
drums to rattle the sky; while the rainmaker turns his magic on the
girl, and persuades her that she has a very real beauty of her own.
And she believes it, just as her father believes the fellow can
actually bring rain. And rain does come, and so does love. An
excellent play for all groups.
"Admirable skill... and] insight into the human heart.... The
touch of a poet.... A hit you must see." N.Y. Mirror.
