Hasty Pudding Theatricals' 177th Production

HPT 177: Salooney Tunes

Show Synopsis:

Notorious outlaw ROBIN YABLIND has just burst into the Goldendamaire Hills saloon! And he’s joined by his lesser-known sidekick…uh…what was his name again? WYATT AINTME? In any case, hapless WYATT needs a clean robbery if he ever wants to see his name in the papers—under ‘TERRORIST WATCH’ — but their gold heist doesn’t necessarily pan out.  News of the whole affair alarms unscrupulous mayor GERRI MANDARIN, who is also after the town’s cash, so she enlists pregnant sheriff CARRIE N TWINS to put the bandits behind bars. Unfortunately for the outlaws, CARRIE’s resolve is unbreakable, unlike her water. With the robbers on the run, GERRI devises a con so outlandish that only idiots would fall for it. Good thing these hills are chock-full. Speaking of idiots, will skittish saloon owner BART ENDER keep his unlicensed saloon afloat? Can sultry saloon-singer SARAH PROBLEM sustain a life of cheap thrills and cheaper jokes? Can twelve year old dancer ANNA FIVESIX- FIVESIXSEVENEIGHT muster the courage to stand up to her mayor-mother’s war crimes before bedtime? Will eager rancher TILDA COWSCOMEHOME’s…cows ever come home? Will depressed horse GIDEON UP ever kick his ketamine addiction? And will colorblind prospector DUSTIN MYEYES finally realize that his shiny grey rocks are actually worth something? Seems like this town has more emotional baggage than gold, meaning WYATT has a long way to go before getting his own WANTED sign. See the chaos unfold at Farkas Hall this spring for Hasty Pudding’s 177th annual musical comedy production: SALOONEY TUNES!
