Inhaltsangabe

In AUTO-DESTRUCT, the action of the play is "the story of a man

who robbed the Bank of Mexico and married a gas station attendant."

To be sure, there's a bank robbery; a double-cross; a getaway scene;

and a passel of sneaky, slimy Mexican heavies who, after being shot,

shortly reappear in diff erent costumes. And the hero does marry the

person who repairs his car-although with identities shifting so rapidly

it's not always easy to tell who's who. But, in this wildly funny parody of

the Hollywood western, it is the action that counts and the zany,

off beat, imaginative lunacy that the author provides in nonstop

profusion. (7 men)

In THE RHESUS UMBRELLA, the setting is a laboratory, where

scientists are probing into the nature of love by experimenting with

giant Rhesus monkeys. The son of one of the scientists is in love with

the daughter of another-but she is committed to her father's research.

The solution: The son dresses in a monkey suit; thereby fooling the

nearsighted scientists; winning the fair maiden; and bearing out the

theory that while love between Rhesus monkeys is an impossibility,

love between a monkey and a human being may well be the wave of the

future. (3 women, 6 men)
