Story of the Play:
What happens when the world’s
worst movie producer, David O. Dimwit, decides to travel to Vansyltrania to
produce his next horrible horror movie? A string of mysterious murders plagues
the set and baffles the aptly named Chief Inspector Idiot. With the help of some
local talent (like a green-faced monster and a hunch-backed laboratory
assistant), director Otto von Strongman and his cast manage to triumph over
murder, a werewolf and an unwrapped mummy to wrap up the film and solve the
mystery. This hilarious send-up of 1930s Hollywood is populated with zany
characters from tourist director Ivan Hoo (whose every conversation sounds like
an Abbot and Costello routine), to gossip columnist Hedda Gobbler, to screen
hero North Dakota Smith. You’ll be laughing all the way to the red carpet with
this sure-fire winner!
