the strangest play I've ever seen

I went to the Arena Dinner Theater with a friend this evening. The food was very good and the play was very unusual. The title THEY CAME FROM MARS AND LANDED OUTSIDE THE FARNDALE AVENUE CHURCH HALL IN TIME FOR THE TOWNSWOMEN'S GUILD'S COFFEE MORNING gives a clue as to its strangeness. It was a play within a play with the chubby church women playing almost all the parts including little boy, robot and Martian and taking time out, during the play, to judge a flower show, show photos of a recent trip to London and announce upcoming events.  The true humor was slapstick action reminiscent of a Vaudeville show. After an opening scene where a large collection of furniture and props are repeatedly moved on and off stage and rearranged randomly the house keeper uses the iron as a telephone because there is no telephone on stage, the door can't be answered because it's the wrong way around with no doorknob, It was all down hill from there. I thought there were lot's of hilarious bits in the play but six of the eight people at our table left at the intermission. Happily that wasn't true at all the tables. I didn't notice anyone else leaving. I guess it wasn't to everyone's taste. As my friend said when it was over "It was fun but I wouldn't want to see it again."
