 A one-act comedy for Christmas. The setting for this most recent installment of the popular Cricket County dramas is the big city. Some of the funniest lines yet are here! The conflict? The country cousins arrive at their city cousins' mansion -- on the same day as a high-society maven, who decides if the wealthy cousins will be accepted into an exclusive society. The city cousins, feeling their chances are doomed, desperately give their backwoods relatives a crash course in etiquette and social graces. Side-splitting hilarity abounds as the sophisticated society snob meets the hillbilly cousins, who try -- albeit unsuccessfully -- to act civilized. Sight gags galore! The surprise ending reveals everything about the country cousins' character and their reason for celebrating Christmas. There's an unexpected coup for the city cousins too! A great follow-up to the other Cricket County plays, but easily stands alone as well.
