Some things never get old - like the moon - or the way Rand Higbee teases out the premise for MOON IN A BARREL. This comic triumph of wit and physical humor serves as inspiration - for the entertainer in me - to write plays for a wide age-range with terrific humor accessible to all. I’ve read it laughing and picturing a whole auditorium breaking up. Excellent.

What a fun short this is! There's humor in the language and the situation, but there's a lot of opportunity for physical comedy as well, which isn't often the case in plays I read. This play is a real gift for a trio of comedic actors!

"Moon in a Barrel" is a cute comedy with all the charm of older comedies like "Green Acres" and "The Beverly Hillbillies." What lunacy to catch the moon in a barrel, but the excitement of Faye and Hermann almost makes you wish that they really did somehow capture a celestial body. Rand Higbee's delightful comedy gives a lot of opportunity for actors to play into the folky farce. Reading this play has given me a homey feeling and a longing for simpler times.
