PIZZAZZ - A Comedy Play




"A Chinese box in dramatic form, a toy that is simple to look at but drives one to near madness when played with"--- Hugh Leonard. Pizzazz is a cleverly plotted, effervescent comedy about relationships. With its compelling play of words, Pizzazz tells the story of two strangers - Marion and Dr. Conroy, who are inadvertently stranded on a Boat Jetty on the river Shannon waiting for an indefinite boat strike to end. To kill the long, tedious hours, the vivacious Marion draws Olivia (her secretary), Dr. Conroy, Mrs. Hand (A cleaning lady) and Rooney (The desk clerk) into a series of games - games about relationships. She manages to weave these characters into a fantastic, make believe dynamic narrative that approaches human relationships in a most unusual way. With it's fair share of idiosyncrasies, quirkiness, persistence and insecurities Pizzazz is a loveable comedy of trials, mostly errors & that indefinable "something".
