Rollo's Wild Oat

Gelesen von LibriVox Volunteers

(4,667 Sterne; 3 Bewertungen)

Rollo Webster, slightly eccentric, has a consuming ambition to play Hamlet. Escaping the restraining influences of his family, he spends his own money in engaging a company, hiring a theater and staging a production of the tragedy. His Ophelia is Goldie MacDuff, who would have been a success in a midnight frolic if she could only keep awake after twelve o’clock. It seems he has everything to finally bring his lifelong ambitions to fruition: a troupe of actors, a gamesome leading lady, a somewhat unscrupulous stage manager, and buckets upon buckets of cash. Now if only he had any talent… - Summary by The Best Plays of 1920-21, with additional material from ChuckW

Funny little play!

(5 Sterne)

Funny little play, with a happy ending just the way I like it! All the voices totally suited their parts too - I could just about see it all!
