My Fair Redneck  Full-Lengths
SPOOF/FARCE. Inspired by George Bernard Shaw’s play Pygmalion. Elizabeth hasn’t been in a movie for more than a year, so her agent, Freddie-Eddie, urges her to audition for the leading role of a redneck in an upcoming movie. As luck would have it, Elizabeth and Freddie-Eddie encounter a real redneck, Henry Piggins, selling wilted flowers on the street. Freddie-Eddie hires Piggins to teach Elizabeth his redneck ways and promptly drops Elizabeth off in the swamp at Hank’s dilapidated trailer. There, Elizabeth meets Hank’s mama and sister, Sissy Lou. The Piggins introduce Elizabeth to redneck ways of life like how to cut yer toenails with a tree branch lopper and how to eat mudbugs off a toilet seat. As Elizabeth struggles with learning how to talk and act like a redneck, Hank realizes it may be a tad harder than he thought makin’ a redneck outta her!
Please remember it is necessary to purchase one script for each cast
member and one royalty for each performance.
