Kaboom! When the town of Beanville is blown to Smithereens, the poor Bean children were far afield gathering cow pies with their tenderfoot teacher, Chuck Stake. The newly orphaned “Beans” are invited by Cornelia Meal and her lovely niece, Sweet Onion, to nearby Cornbread Flats to stay at their hotel and chili parlor. Meanwhile, local banker and all around bad guy Con Carne and his hench people, Sal Sa and Hal Apenio, are trying to “con” their way to Corny’s secret chili ingredient in order to win a lucrative canned good contract. Hilarity ensues as Chuck Stake (in disguise) and western "high-tech" Sheriff Honey put their sleuthing skills together to discover what Con Carne is up to. Punning their way to a surprise conclusion, these flavorful characters, with a little help from a witty narrator, cook up a storm of laughter from your audience! And by the way, where is Smithereens?!

My high school students love melodramas. They loved combining a melodrama with dinner when we performed The Secret of Cornbread Flats. My students came up with a unique curtain call by forming little vignettes on different areas of the stage. Sue Wright, Memorial Christian Academy, West Brooklyn, IL
We always know that if we need to, we can condense some parts or write in a few. Gwen Vargas, Waverly Presbyterian Church, Pittsburgh, PA
