Who Killed Kevin?
By:
Vern Harden
Age Level: Middle Grades to High School
Cast: 17W, 3M, flexible
Time: 30 minutes
When a new wing is added to the Sleeping Time Rest Home, it turns out to be the "Wing Ding Wing," occupied by loonies from the asylum. When Martha begins wailing about the demise of her "Kevin," crazy detective, Spurlock Gnomes, and companion, Dr. Walkins, investigate the crime. Enter Eager Alice Poe, dressed in black, reciting comic versions of "The Raven," tapping, tapping on the chamber door. This continues forevermore as the loonies of the Bird Watching Society do "coo-coo" bird calls and silly bird antics. They are quieted by Thumper Dan who wants to stomp on everyone’s toes. Meanwhile crotchety old George tries to keep from getting "married" to the willing Martha, whose "Kevin" turns out to be a stuffed cat that fell from the shelf and broke its neck. Student actors will have a wild time portraying these elderly coo-coos. End-to-end laughter.
