5 boys and 7 girls are suspects - up to 30 can play
For years, the
Upstage Heights Theater lay vacant and neglected until Harry D. Rector arrived with
a vision, determination, and enough cash to turn the crumbling brick building into
a fancy fairy-tale theater. He wrote a script, held auditions, and signed on promising
actors - actors who were none other than eager townspeople of Upstage Heights caught
up in his star-struck plan.
Yes, Harry promised
to make them all shining stars. And his first production would be a glitzy version
of a famous Brothers Grimm fairy tale - the story of how the beautiful Rapunzel
would let down her hair from the top of an isolated tower to be used as a golden
stairway for visitors to climb.
With the grand
opening night of "Rapunzel" fast approaching, his predictions seemed to be coming
true. Playbills were circulating like wildfire around the town, and all anyone
could talk about was the show. "Have you heard? Prince Charming is going to climb
real hair!"
No
one had ever attempted such a feat before. Tickets were sold out. Actors were reciting
lines day and night and, best of all, a big producer was in Upstage Heights. Rumor
had it that if he liked what he saw, he might sign on the actors and take the show
on a nationwide tour. Ultimate destination - Broadway.
But now he may not see anything. The play - or, more precisely (but just
as devastatingly), the star - has been sabotaged TODAY, on opening day. The long
lustrous, golden waves of hair on the head of Rapunzel, played by Jeanie Us, have
been dyed a slimy, gross green. No prince would even want to touch such hair, let
alone climb it.
And no audience will want to see it. How can the show go on when no golden hair dye can be found that’s powerful enough to cover the green? An understudy
isn’t an option. No one, not even her twin sister, Jill, has hair as long as Jeanie’s.
Everyone
involved in the production is gathered
at Trendy Tresses Hair Salon, trying to decide
what to do. Only careful questioning by cast and crew can uncover the truth about
the perpetrator of this dastardly dye job. If, as feared, the show must be canceled,
the culprit must be made to announce it to the disappointed crowd - and suffer the
consequences of a colossal bombardment of rotten tomatoes.
We’d tell all of you to "break a
leg," but the way this show is going, it makes more sense to wish you "locks of
luck!"
