WORLD PREMIERE RIGHTS NOW AVAILABLE
A CHRISTMAS TRIFLE FOR TWO CLOWNS AND MISS ISABEL
3 Actors - One Set - 75 Minutes, No Intermission
It’s Miss Isabel’s 97th Christmas Eve, a festive annual event celebrated by her closest remaining family. A six-course meal with Martinis to start, wines appropriate to each course and Champagne throughout. All served impeccably by the indispensable family retainer James and the new man, Chuck. Unfortunately, all Miss Isabel’s family are deceased, and the unflappable James and unsuspecting Chuck must fill in – all while consuming liberal amounts of the aforementioned libations. What could possibly go wrong? As James reminds Miss Isabel: “Family holiday gatherings are much like theatrical entertainments. Hope for the best, expect the worst.” “A Christmas Trifle…” is not only hilarious throughout but concludes with a sweet holiday twist. A tour de force for three actors and at 75 minutes it is a perfect holiday offering. (Link to additional information.)
