The Nut Farm
by John C. Brownell

Produced at the Cort Theater, Chicago, and at the Biltmore Theater, New York.

The Barton family, consisting of Willie, an ambitious young chap who yearns to be a film director, his married sister, Helen, ambitious to become a movie star, and their mother, the patient, carry on most of the action.

Helen's husband, who has sold a grocery store in Newark with the intention of buying a nut farm in California, is more or less the motor of the plot, for it is his money that enables Helen to get a chance to be a star.

Poor Hubby Robert!

By the time a slick film producer, a scenario writer, a bored leading man, his own wife and brother-in-law, get through with that thirty thousand, all Bob has left is a memory.

Fortunately Willie saves the day and the money by a bit of movie magic and everything ends happily.

Highly recommended for amateur production by high schools, churches and clubs.
