THE STORY: In THE E.Z. SNOOZ MOTEL, the action moves to Throckmorton’s leading hostelry, a rundown motel which the townspeople use largely for immoral purposes. On this particular night the customers include a swaggering macho type who turns out to be a pushover when the hitherto meek desk clerk (in defending a lady’s honor) flattens him with one punch; a would-be singer who seems to actually believe the lies put forth by a toupeed little man who claims to be Conway Twitty’s road manager; and the wife of the man who escaped on a trailer truck in the first play. Again the action is fast and funny and studded with telling observations—but, as before, there is also true wit and wisdom to leaven the fun.
Included in the collection Throckmorton, TX. 76083.
