The Holiday Channel Christmas Movie Wonderthon
By Don Zolidis
***Please note this play both rehearses and performs online using the Zoom platform!***
Synopsis: Christmas: a time for magic. A time for the traditions we cherish. A time to watch as many original TV movies as a human being can possibly endure. But now with The Holiday Channel Christmas Movie Wonderthon, you can enjoy the sugar rush of six Christmas movies all at once! Welcome to Hopewood Falls, Vermont, where singles in adorable sweaters converge to look for love. Can disguises help royalty and/or movie stars find the down-to-earth connections they crave? Will evil city slickers destroy charming inns and/or Christmas tree farms? Isn't it a little creepy for a meet-cute to depend on one person being in a coma? Grab a hot chocolate and your favorite wise single friend to find out in this wildly entertaining parody of holiday rom-coms.
Breakdown: Adult actors and actresses, ages 18 to 65 only, no minors
Narrator 1 (Also plays Prancer, and others): The boss. The driving force to keep the play from running off the rails.
Narrator 2 (Also plays Vixen, and others): The well-meaning assistant, a more exuberant cheerleader than management type.
Holly: Owner of the Inn. Classic (almost Disney-esque) heart of gold.
Brett: A very wealthy prince from a European country no one has ever heard of, masquerading as a handyman from the vague state of “The Midwest”. (Western European accent (of your choice), AND Midwestern American accent preferred.)
Joy: A romance novelist, visiting the inn with the hopes that the quaint, remote location will finally cure her writer’s block.
Paul: A romance novelist, and Joy’s rival. Self-important, but not fully immune to true love if he can meet it off the page.
Carol: A war reporter, home for the holidays. Slightly rusty in the ways of small-town America. (Physical comedy experience a plus.)
Jackson: A veterinarian, the owner of two goofy Golden Retrievers, and the unsuspecting victim (lover?) of Carol. (Physical comedy experience a plus.)
Merry: Classic, big city business type. On a mission to find the perfect tree to bring back to the metropolis, with absolutely no time for love.
Blake: The rugged, heartbroken owner of this tiny town’s tree farm. (And oh, so handsome…)
Kris: The son of the former reigning town parade Santa, caught in an existential struggle. To move on, and make as much money as possible as a very important real estate lawyer businessperson? Or to carry on the family legacy and bring joy to his hometown one more time?
Noelle: The owner of the most preposterously profitable business in town, the Christmas Ornament Boutique. Filled to the brim with holiday spirit.
Sven: A very wealthy prince from a Scandinavian/Eastern European country no one has ever heard of, masquerading as a “simple peasant truck driver person” from “somewhere in America”. (Scandinavian or Eastern European accent (of your choice), AND generic American accent preferred.)
Rita: A B-List Hollywood star, filming in this…remote location. Distrusting of men’s motives, she pretends to be part of the production crew. (“Hollywood” dialect AND “small town” dialect required.)
Laertes (Also plays “The Ex-Boyfriends”): The villain. Oozes that classic “I’ll tie the damsel in distress to the railroad tracks” charm. A real estate developer out to steal Holly’s Inn.
Bridgette: The sassy best friend of all of the women.
