Moon Over Buffalo a comedy by Ken Ludwig
Moon Over Buffalo relies heavily on situation comedy for its humor, as well as some sexual innuendo and a little slapstick. The action and dialogue are fast-paced, as the characters are constantly bickering or frantically trying to resolve some confusion.
George and Charlotte Hay, traveling actors, are performing Cyrano de Bergerac and Private Lives in a repertory theatre in Buffalo NY. Charlotte has grandiose dreams of becoming a Hollywood film star; George, on the other hand, is quite satisfied as a stage actor, and sees live theater as being superior to film.
George receives a phone call from Frank Capra, a very famous film director, who says that he needs replacements for the two stars of his current film, The Twilight of The Scarlet Pimpernel, and that he plans to see one of George’s shows and consider George and Charlotte for the parts. Charlotte, however, doesn’t believe George when he gives the news; she has just learned that George has had an affair with one of their actors, Eileen, and that Eileen is pregnant with George’s child. Misdirection, misinformation, misidentification ensue. How will all the plots twists unravel?
