Triple Play: El Clavadista, a Sort of Holiday & Amelia Earhart Was Not a Spy (Performance (Signature Editions)) Colleen Curran

El Clavadista is a black comedy about two vacationing teachers in Mexico. Starting with the good laughs that come from seeing people like ourselves caught in predictable tourist behavior, the play moves subtley into a carefully observed character study with a shocking finale.

A Sort of Holiday is an unlikely romantic comedy about two strangers who clash one afternoon in a small college library. The spirit of Stephen Leacock, which permeates this play, gently leads the two characters to a surprising reconciliation.

Amelia Earhart Was Not a Spy is a romantic comedy which pits Chester, the practical geologist whom Hilary intends to marry, against Kevin, her best friend with whom she has been living for almost seven years.
