If Moliere could see this Western farce of his medical plays, he’d laugh himself silly! Lucy Canary, the mayor’s daughter, loves Lester Goodbe, a likeable cowboy. But Lucy’s father insists that she marry Otis Lackginger, a rich, old coot with one foot in the grave. Lucy pretends to lose her voice to stall the marriage, so everyone goes on a search to find a doctor to cure her. And what a passel of phony medics they find! Each quack physician is devoted to the Grease Gulch Hippopotamus Oath — “If you can’t convince ’em, confuse ’em.” And this they do with rapid-fire jokes, sight gags, and slapstick comedy! The climax is the funniest operation scene ever witnessed — the doctors take it all out and then put it back! Nobody writes them like Tim Kelly, and this has everything you love about his plays — easy staging with one simple set, simple Western costumes and decent-sized roles for easy rehearsals.
