Wild Oats
James Mclure


Concerns a preposterous and manifestly outrageous duel to be fought by the newlyweds, Bill and Sally Oakes in their living room.
A childish but nevertheless serious argument is started and it snowballs into a tempestuous challenge-- a challenge to a duel with pistols.
Plans are made, seconds are chosen and the duel, after false starts and interruptions gets under way.
The duel solves the problem for the Oaks.
A delightfully different play.
