Cast: Stil Munday - Robert Sawyer (https://www.voices.com/profile/rtsawyer) Tuesday Knight - Debra Cole (http://www.debraacole-playwright.com) Joe Friday - George Sapio (onstageoffstage.org, gsapio.com) Mr Thursday - Dominic McGee Play Synopsis: Mundy Tuesday Friday is a fast paced, screwball comedy, reminiscent of the films of Howard Hawks and Frank Capra, with the dialogue style of Ben Hecht and Charles MacArthur. The play takes place in a small office space, and we meet three office workers, who have become best friends. Their dialogue together is fast, precise and funny. As in the Hawks and Capra films, their tone shifts after receiving some bad news, and they have to face their future together. https://newplayexchange.org/plays/114253/mundy-tuesday-friday If you can, please Like/Follow/Support us! :-) https://www.buymeacoffee.com/TheatricalShenanigans https://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=100087550385392 https://www.instagram.com/theatricalshenanigans/ https://www.etsy.com/uk/shop/RFWScripts https://www.rfwscripts.co.uk/shop
