Nobody Loves Chachi - a radio play

  • Martin Heavisides: Nobody Loves Chachi - a radio play

    As Oscar Wilde said, there are two tragedies in life--not getting what you want, and getting it. Dick learns this afresh from Chachi. (I can understand why nobody loves him.)

  • Martha Patterson: Nobody Loves Chachi - a radio play

    A radio comedy & horror piece (complete with sound effects) that starts out very funny, and in the second half becomes rather affectingly touching. A man meets a Renaissance woman who introduces him to a Scott Baio-like doll (think of the TV show "Joanie Loves Chachi"), who supposedly knows secrets about the man's past. This is a weird, short piece that made me laugh -- at first, before I became invested in the man's problems. The script has little kids in the cast and the sound effects will be highly effective.

The 4 children at the end can be doubled by one or several actors.
