Thanks to the popularity of Complaint Department and Lemonade, best-selling author Kamron Klitgaard has written another delightfully fun and fast-paced one act comprised of a series of short duet and trio scenes.
An odd fortune teller has set up his or her table in a public square, and a steady stream of customers has the psychic offering visions of the future for just a buck apiece. Dawn and her boyfriend Don ask about the results of a potentially career-changing phone call she’s about to get. Don laughs off the seer’s fuzzy prediction as a con, but Dawn takes stock as it seems to come true just moments later! As more visitors seek answers from the vague visionary, the questions and ambiguous answers pile up nearly as fast as the laughs.
With extremely simple production needs that make it ideal for contests or classroom scene work, this hysterical one-act is also highly entertaining as it explores the lengths to which some people will go to hear what they want to hear.
