Everybody Loves Opal

 By John Patrick

* Produced by special arrangement with Dramatists Play Service, Inc.

 SYNOPSIS:

Opal Kronkie, a middle-aged recluse, lives in a tumbledown mansion at the edge of the municipal dump. The general disarray of her establishment is aggravated by the fact that Opal collects things—anything that can be toted home in her little red wagon. Into her rather strange world comes Gloria, Bradford and Solomon, three purveyors of bogus perfume on the lam from the authorities. Opal's menage is the perfect hideout—and Opal, herself, might be the remedy for their shattered finances. They decide that what she needs is plenty of insurance, a rapid demise, and three beneficiaries named Gloria, Bradford and Solomon. Attempted murder wouldn't seem to be funny, but in Mr. Patrick's magic hands it is uproarious.

Clinton County Showcase is a non-profit community arts group (Breese, Illinois) dedicated to promoting art, music, and theatre events. Our goal is to provide a creative artistic outlet for our youth as well as adults. To that end we have established the following Scholarships to be presented annually.
