Nearly half the shows produced at Arden Playhouse were written by Messmer. A current catalog of his comedies (in PDF) can be downloaded which includes contact information for those interested in producing one of his plays. This is a collection of over 30 comedies (Witty Wacky Plays) that are easy to produce with relatively small casts (more female than male roles). All require a single set (usually with several entrance points) and are set in the current era (easy to costume and furnish). Most of the language would rate a PG in a movie.
They are in the tradition of the Marx Brothers, Lucille Ball, Red Skelton and Carol Burnett. In other words: good, clean fun.
