TALLEY O'MALLEY, The UNLUCKY LEPRECHAUN





2M,1F. One-Act (10min). A leprechaun is down on his luck, and tries everything to turn it around for himself.


"TALLEY rocked. Great characters, perfectly structured and very, very funny. It was one of the best plays at the festival....The fact that [Kate]'s new at this just blows me away." (Roxanna Guilford-Blake, GOOD Works Theatre Festival, 2013)


"Kate Guyton’s script has a schematic quality to it, with Talley surrounded by bad luck symbols at the start and receiving good luck charms at the end. Peg Thon’s makeup and costume are terrific as Talley, as is her posture and Irish accent. Tori Montgomery also brings believably leprechaun-like qualities to her role as Talley’s wife." (Playgoer, TheaterReview.com, 2014)
