The Wheeler Dealers

The Wheeler Dealers $13

F Andrew Leslie from George Goodman

Published by Dramatists Play Service

9 Male 4 Female

From the top of his Stetson to the tip of his fancy cowboy boots, Henry Tyroon, independent oil wildcatter, is pure wheeler dealer - a larger-than-life-sized combination of supersalesmanship

He has big ideas, and an unerring instinct for a quick profit. From his natural habitat of Texas, Henry comes to New York in search of "mullets" - which is Texas-talk for well-heeled potential investors

But his attention is diverted when he meets the attractive Molly Thatcher, a struggling young Wall Street securities analyst. Molly's interest in Henry derives from the fact that she hopes to sell him shares in Universal Widget

This happens to be a mysterious little company which has been turned over to Molly as her last chance to make good and hold her job. Henry's interest in Molly is of a more romantic sort, but he is delighted to chat about widgets (for openers)

After which it's on to a series of wild escapades-ending up first in the clutches of the Justice Department - they are innocent, as it turns out - and then in each other's arms
