Fools at Ponca Playhouse

Leon Tolchinsky is ecstatic. He has landed a terrific teaching job in an idyllic Russian hamlet. When he arrives, he finds people sweeping dust from the stoops back into their houses and milking cows upside down to get more cream. It seems the town has been cursed with Chronic Stupidity for 200 years and now Leon must break the curse in less than 24 hours lest he, too, become an idiot. Alas, he has fallen in love with Sophia, a beautiful girl so stupid that she has only recently learned how to sit down. Join us for what CBS-TV called "The brightest, freshest, funniest, wittiest, warmest and happiest to-do on Broadway in many a day.
