Over-the-top costuming, contrasting characters, and outrageous hillbilly humor make this “fowl” mystery a real howl!
Generally speaking, the Pruitts are “none too bright” — with the exception of the oldest daughter, Lilybelle. And on this particular morning, Lillybelle’s eager to put her degree from Harvard Business School to use at her new job with a local brokerage company. With a business proposal in mind, she’s invites over the well-to-do Van Cans for omelets.
But problems arise when Lillybelle’s ma, Queenetta, reveals that she “cain’t make no omelets” for the Van Cans on account of the fact that all the Pruitts’ chickens are dead and presumed murdered! Pa accuses neighbors Leroy Framingham and his twin sons of... fowl play!
Your audience will be rolling with laughter as mayhem erupts when the Van Cans arrive just as an epic feud with the Framinghams is about to break out! Luckily, with the help of the local sheriff, the chicken-killing mystery is solved, Lilybelle’s ambitions are met, and even the fancy-schmancy Van Cans are pleased.
