Brief Synopsis:
A nonstop rapid-fire romp reminiscent of the great English farces from the 1930s and 40s which begins as rival country clubs compete in the Annual Interclub Golf Tournament...with a sizeable wager at stake. Complete with mistaken identities, slamming doors, and over-the-top romantic shenanigans, this is a charmingly madcap adventure about love, life, and man's eternal love affair with golf. (farce)


Roles available for 3 men, 3 women
The ages listed are the stated ages of the characters, not necessarily the required age of the actors.

HENRY BINGHAM (mid 40s-50’s): Director of the Quail Valley Country Club. He is witty and cynical at times, much like Basil Fawlty from Fawlty Towers. He gets into a high-stakes bet on a golf tournament and is determined to do what it takes to win. He is also unhappy in his marriage to Muriel and becomes involved with Pamela.

PAMELA PEABODY (Late 30’s-40’s): A member of the Quail Valley Country Club. She is very attractive and sophisticated, but a bit loose and a bit of a drinker. Throughout the play she aids Bingham in his plans to make sure their club wins.

JUSTIN HICKS (young 20’s): Bingham’s new eager-to-please assistant who volunteers his services as a golfer to help Quail Valley win the golf tournament. He is romantically involved with Louise and proposes to her early on, but becomes emotionally distraught when things become difficult between them.

LOUISE HEINDBEDDER (young 20’s): A waitress at the Quail Valley Country Club. She is very attractive, and a bit flighty, but studious. She gets engaged to Justin early on, but a mishap results in her becoming very upset over their future together, making her bawl at a moment’s notice.

DICKIE BELL (mid 40s to 50’s): The director of the rival Crouching Squirrel Country Club, with whom Bingham gets into a high-stakes bet. He is a bit obnoxious, including his fashion sense, but tries to come off as good-natured. He is Pamela’s ex and has a thing for Bingham’s wife Muriel.

MURIEL BINGHAM (40s-50’s): Bingham’s wife, who runs an antique shop, which becomes part of the bet between Henry and Dickie. Generally overbearing and stern, she somehow has a soft spot for Dickie.

All roles are available.
