One Act Bare Stage/Simple Set American Comedy

The specter of "open housing" dominates this satire about the neighborhood apprehension that arises when a house is put up for sale.

The action moves quickly from house to house and finally to a welcoming tea for a most unwelcome new neighbor.

The posturing, the rationalizing and the tortuous reasoning that leads to the defeat of logic are soundly ridiculed.
