Friendlyville
A Zany Hometown Comedy
by Kevin Drzakowski
4W / 5M + Extras
Approximate Playing Time: 110 Minutes
Take a walk down Main Street in picture-perfect Friendlyville. You’ll think you discovered Mayberry until Florist Jake Robertson flies screaming out of Bernie Matheson’s Barber Shop with his ear cut off! From morally corrupt Mayor Quinton P. Dinkerson to Old Man Ellison who philosophizes from behind his morning newspaper that all but predicts the current affairs, you’ll fall victim to the zany characters of Friendlyville who live in a funhouse world where you have to be who you are no matter who you want to be. When Giggles the Clown returns to town only to be once again humiliated for his total lack of ability to make or want to make anyone laugh, the Mayor threatens him with death if he fails to fulfill his destiny as the town clown. And when Giggles turns up with a pair of shears sticking out of his crimson hair, it is Jake who stands accused and immediately declared guilty and sentenced to hanging for stealing Giggles’ body from the solid oak coffin that has been waiting patiently under the park bench for Old Man Ellison to die. Yes, it is that askew in Friendlyville where its outlandishly kooky residents will keep your audiences hysterical while subtly developing a change of heart.
