By the author of the popular EVERY FAMILY HAS ONE and the Broadway hit, RAMSHACKLE INN. Successfully produced by the National Thespians of West Fairmont High School, West Fairmont, West Virginia. The adventures and misadventures of Miss Tommy Billings, a small town junior miss, who has seen too many movies for her own�and everyone else's�good. Lovable, but with an over-active imagination, Tommy gets practically everyone into hot water. Her father, the doctor, her chum, Doto, her sister, Flora Lee, the eccentric maid, Cleota, and the school teacher, Miss Thaxter, who is just crazy for culture, all are victims to Tommy's scheme to make everyone happy�whether they want to be or not. However, when the wealthy spinster, Miss Cassandra Thorn, pays the family a visit and Tommy decides an ancient romance should be revived, the complications that ensue almost teach her a lesson. Answering Lonely Heart Advertisements, re-writing the school play, getting the money for her father's clinic, patching up broken hearts, Tommy has a busy time� and a few tears before she emerges triumphant.

FEE: $75 per performance.
