Did you ever wonder what would happen if a librarian joined a pirate crew? We never did either. But that didn't stop us from writing a very funny play about it. If you think that "Citizen Kane" is still the best movie ever made, then you are in good company and maybe you can get them to read this play also, even though this is non sequitur.
This play offers an explanation for EVERY problem in modern life, one of which begins when the star fails to show for the performance, and the other actors have to re-enact parts of his life. This is a gentle but sharp satire on prejudice, and an outright appeal for compassion, with a reason for keeping hope alive
Hippocampus returns to Athens from Troy under a curse from Zeus. He has only two days to sacrifice "that which he holds most dear" or be damned to Hades. His frantic search involves the Oracle at Delphi, Socrates and his girl-friend Asparagus. Partially inspired by an Abbot and Costello routine Sophocles explores every aspect of human life and a few in-human ones.
THE MARX BROTHERS IN WELL, ALL ENDS IN A COMEDY, BY ERROR The Marx Brothers did more than make movies, as they also appeared in live plays. This one, from 1937, is a hilarious spoof of "A Mid-Summer's Night Dream," among others of Shakespeare's works. Groucho is Tylenol, the King of the Fairies, while Chico is Aleve, a rustic shepherd. They meet in the enchanted forest of reversals, where the opposite of what is intended usually occurs. So they each decide to pursue the ladylove of the other, from whom they receive lessons on how to win a female heart. You can imagine the results no, trust me, actually you cannot. As you no longer can see the live play, you will have to read this to see what happens. This is a necessary addition to the collection of any Marx Brothers fan. GROUCHO AND JULIET A play starring Groucho Marx as Romeo; Chico and Harpo as Juliet's parents; and Colombo the Medieval police detective who investigates. Then add "The Dating Game, Italy 1340AD.
Silverman the Chimp and the Backwards World is the first installment in the Silverman Saga. Each story is a complete fable, intended to entertain children (and adults ) while teaching good sense, advancing basic virtues, presenting correct English usage, and expanding vocabulary (a little bit). But, don't worry... as your children will never notice, until it is too late
This play is a joint effort with Eugene O'Neill, we observe the Arnold family as it slowly dissolves in shame, neglect, tragedy, death and cucumber sandwiches with the crust left on. The searing spiritual insights of O'Neill crash upon the garden party of Wilde's characters and drown them. Never has such naked exposure of the human soul been achieved over tea and finger sandwiches.
This play is the original source for the works of Stephen King. In this joint effort with Mary shelley Victor Frankenstein Jr. returns to his Father' estate, to b e confronted with ---the horror--- of a servant shortage forced by this, he "plays God," creating a perfect servant, who can serve tea and cucumber sandwiches, make witty observations about society, and still terrorize the local serfs at night. Actuallly, this monster/servant is not perfect because he needs successive operations to give him a brain, a heart and some courage. It's a WIZ of a play.
