Synopsis
Whiskey
Published by Dramatists Play Service
4 Male 2 Female
The group makes a rare live appearance at the Houston Astrodome, only to flop disastrously, and then retreats to their hotel where each member then reveals his (or her) innermost thoughts in hilarious detail
When the hotel catches fire they are too far gone to notice, and the epilogue finds them all in heaven - dressed in white western finery, and lamenting the fact that "Whiskey," who miraculously survived the inferno, is about to become the star of a new series
An outrageous hilarious spoof of a beloved, but boozy, television cowboy troupe, whose very success is a biting commentary on contemporary society and its standards
