"Deliciously
Funny"
Brief
Description of the Musical
This light hearted
musical comedy is an energetic, thought provoking romp which works well on
stage or in dinner theatre. Enjoy an evening of romance, fun, mischief,
gender-skirmishes, mix-ups and a little magic. The setting is the Oasis
Cafe. Its creative owner, Charlie is always coming up with new ideas to
generate business. Tonight has great promise. In addition to the regular
crowd, he has invited members of a local dating service to attend. He has
also concocted an unusual drink with his own secret recipe of oriental
herbs. This will add to the fun and result in some unusual antics. The
evening has attracted an eclectic gathering of lovers, loners, cynics, and
wacky characters. As the evening progresses, everyone becomes involved with
issues of love, romance and philosophy. The story is captivating and
thoroughly enjoyable, and the songs offer a wide variety of genres including
ballads, rock ‘n roll, country and Latin. At the end of the show audiences
will depart with smiles on their faces and songs in their hearts.
Cast members will have
a challenging and fun time taking on the roles of the diverse characters in
the show, and each actor will have his or her special moment in the
limelight. The cast consists of 5 males and 5 females, plus a chorus if
desired (see Cast Descriptions).
Production costs can be
kept to a minimum since there is one basic set (the Oasis Cafe) and three
small scenes which can be performed in front of the curtain, on a side stage
or in a spotlight. (see Set Design).
