Synopsis:
Show #1:
"The Cowhands Christmas Carol"...or "Was Plum Tired of Pudding"
by James R. Hurst and Zoe Bell Hurst
Sweet Carol Christmas, the orphaned housekeeper for Colonel Rushmores Cross Stitch Ranch, has two beaux seeking her favor. One is the dashing, pure-hearted cowhand, Silverado Sterling. The other, however, is the diabolic and oily Philip Phlimphlam, who has his sights set on more than one thing! The seasons spirit has Colonel Rushmore planning to donate acres of his land to the Tiny Tumbleweeds Orphan Asylum. But Phlimphlam secretly knows the land is worth a bundle to the railroad companies and tries to wheedle the colonel into selling the property to him. When the colonel refuses, our evil villain plots to take deadly and drastic action with an explosive plum pudding! Our only hope is for Silverado Sterling to overcome a blizzard, wolves and exploding plum pudding to save the day and of course, win Carol Christmas heart.
Second Performance:
"Rollin' in Dough in Mistletoe"... or "Don't Crack Jingle Bell Rock"
By: Marietta Slater
Its Christmas Eve in Mistletoe, but everyone is far from Holly Jolly. Rolland N. Dough is foreclosing on the entire town, which has everybody dreaming of a black Christmas! Will the townspeople be out in the cold, walkin in a winter wonderland? Will the most wicked, the most dastardly, the most evil, the most despicable villain of all time finally win out this time? If only the town could find the five golden rings hidden near Jingle Bell Rock, theyd have enough money to pay off their loans and save the town. Their fate rests in the hands of Randolph the Bowlegged Cowboy. Will he go down in history? This clever Christmas melodrama rustles up laughter and silly fun by incorporating Christmas carol lyrics into dialogue.
