Said the Spider to the Spy – 2023 Winter
A play by Fred Carmichael.
The Play
A crime comedy set in Florida. Augusta Waycross (a librarian) borrows the identity of a best-selling romance author, and has a problem: a package of heroin is left in the house by a missing guest! She is soon inundated with undercover narcotic agents pretending to be guests whose aim is to arrest the king pin who will show up to collect the drugs. A lot of funny scenes: a detective placed in a window seat, a man who doesn’t remember who he is calls the police to see if they know, a helpful bum who makes a Bed & Breakfast for the house, a couple who met buying candy bars show up, a women’s club member with a black belt in karate demonstrates her skills. And then the romance author unexpectedly turns up, followed by her dark and brooding husband.
