Show Synopsis:

A young bride who lives above a bank with her husband who is the assistant manager, innocently sends a mail order off for some Scandinavian glassware. What comes is Scandinavian pornography. The plot revolves around what is to be done with the veritable floods of pornography, photographs, books, films, and eventually girls that threaten to engulf this happy couple. The matter is considerably complicated by the man's mother, his boss, a visiting bank inspector, a police superintendent, and a muddled friend who does everything wrong in his reluctant efforts to set everything right, all of which works up to a hilarious ending of closed or slamming doors. 

ALL ROLES OPEN

British accent required.

The show will run at Studio Theatre from May 15th - May 31st.

Character Descriptions:

Peter Hunter: A newlywed and bank assistant manager who becomes increasingly "seething" and panicked as his orderly life is destroyed by the pornography.

Frances Hunter: Peter’s young bride, who is "chronically flustered" while trying to manage the chaotic situation.

Brian Runnicles: Peter's assistant, characterized by his high-strung, frantic, and "shocked" reaction to the unfolding events.

Eleanor Hunter: Peter's mother, a "snobbish" and oblivious character who often exacerbates the situation.

Mr. Needham/Bromhead: The bank manager or senior official, embodying stuffy respectability and a horror of the scandal.

Superintendent Paul/Auditor: Characters who represent authority, adding to the tension through their perplexity and the threat of discovery. 

The characters are generally one-dimensional, archetypal figures designed for comedic, high-speed misunderstandings and slapstick.
