About the Play:

Your Flake or Mine? is a full-length comedy by Jack Sharkey. The play features a greeting card writer who can't stop talking in quirky rhyming couplets. He's trying to win back his wife who's looking to leave him for her boss, but all kinds of characters show up to provide entertainment – helpful and not so helpful – along the way.

Your Flake or Mine? is about Tony Dawson, a greeting card writer who has lost his wife Margo because he talks in couplets rhyming on the wrong occasions. She plans to marry her boss Sagamore, a breakfast food tycoon. Tony, in a last ditch attempt to win her back, offers to throw a "no-hard-feelings" engagement party. His plans are complicated by the arrival of a friend, Irving, who is a perpetual student; the nightclub singer, Coral, for whom he is writing special material; and his eccentric copy editor, Lucille, who stops by just before the party to collect his monthly greeting card output. Irving is wearing a towel on his way to the shower, Coral gets her dress ripped off, and the editor is stashed in the closet which Tony pretends is a darkroom. Add to this a ghastly television show on which Tony accidentally pans Sagamore's breakfast cereal, and all manner of people being shoved behind screens, out into halls, into closets and shower stalls and you have one of the wackiest farces ever seen on a stage.

Your Flake or Mine? has been produced widely at colleges and community theatres.

Cast: 3 female, 3 male
