Overview

"WANTED: A GOLDEN LEADER TO RESTORE THE MONARCHY The Golden One is a one-act satirical comedy that explores unwavering loyalty to authoritarian leaders, intolerance, and environmental mayhem. After the monarchy falls, the Lumberjack Leprechauns hold a costume contest to find their next golden leader. For generations, the loyal Lumberjack Leprechauns have followed their king's orders to find the great pot o' gold buried underneath trees. But when President Leafhopper, an ally of the dreaded Tree Huggers, wins the first democratic election and enforces deforestation regulations, their world is turned upside down. With their leader Stumpsharp captured after a disastrous attempt to storm the castle, Axestorm, Chopwit, and Sawdunce devise an ingenious method for finding their next golden leader: a costume contest in the North Woods. Ingenious, that is, until eccentric contestants and a lively audience challenge their quest to restore the monarchy. W.T. Kosmos, humorist author of the award-winning Blaze Union and the Puddin' Head Schools, presents his debut play for teens and adults, designed for six or more actors and minimal props. W.T. Kosmos is the surly alter ego (pen name) of a life-long educator. ""A perfect play for a variety of levels. I loved reading this play! It's heavy on comedy, totally over the top in its premise and execution. Somehow silly and thought-provoking at the same time. A perfect fit for academic and/or community theater, or any venue that enjoys presenting satire. This script would be easy to produce on a limited budget - even the catapult can be accomplished with some imagination - cast size is good, and characters can be played by any gender."" Scott H., Equity Actor"
