RADIO (T.B.S.) by Mark Landon Smith

RADIO T.B.S.(short for Trailer Park Broadcasting Scandals) is a hilarious holiday play set in a fictional Central Florida trailer parkdubbed The Luna Del Mar Manufactured Home Oasis and Monkey Empire. RADIO T.B.S. highlights the on- and off-stage drama of a group of Southern belles as they prepare for their annual nativity play.

There's a visit to Graceland from rovin' reporter Missy Goode (and her unfortunate arrest by the security guards); there's the upcomin' Miss Manatee contest, if forced contestant Mayola Felts can stop eaten' every sweet thing she can get her hands on; there's The Heart of Dixie advice for the lovelorn and addicted -- a subscription to the Gone with the Wind collectors series of plates with Scarlet O'Hara looking like Ernest Borgnine in drag is a dramatic disappointment.

The colossal celebration at Luna Del Mar, penicillin capital of central Florida, is Jesus and Elvis; A Tribute to the Kings, a little nativity with some rock n' roll. So it's not the holidays, but in honor of Elvis, a drive-by nativity is planned with headlights to be beamed on the annual tableau -- low headlights, PLEASE! If you think that this kings' tribute runs smoothly, you'll also believe that teased hair is a thing of the past.

TCT's staged reading of this ten-woman comedy will feature some of South Florida's funniest women, including Elena Maria Garcia, Sally Bondi, Niki Fridh, Sabrina Gore, Casey Dressler, Margery Lowe, Jessica Farr, Merry Jo Cortada Pitasi, Carey Brianna Hart, and Renee Elizabeth Turner.
