Ovation's Condo-Monium

Jennifer Selway

Genre: Comedy

Cast size: 8

Duration: 1hr 40m approx

Jennifer Selway | Comedy | Full Length | 4m, 4f

Short synopsis

This is the American translation of Ovation’s classic British farce ‘Flat Out’. Although set in a New York apartment, the location can easily be changed to any major Canadian city. Updated for today’s audience, this high energy comedy entertains through exaggerated and improbable situations.

Licensing by Stagescripts in CANADA only

A modern-day comedy about real estate, mice and adultery.   Set in a crumbling city block overrun by vermin, leaking pipes and scheming property developers.   When Angela borrows her friend's apartment for a romantic assignation with an eminent lawyer, she hopes for an afternoon to remember. Unfortunately, that’s exactly what she gets!  Throw into the mix an ambitious real estate employee, his girlfriend accomplice, a cross-dressing ex-banker, an over-zealous maid and an underworld character who returns from Florida minus his partner. It’s the perfect scenario for an outrageous tale of mayhem, mistaken identities and some rather suspicious breakfast cereal.

“The show has a slightly edgy vibe, dancing in and around contemporary subjects without taking a definitive position. Oddly enough, even as we are still dealing with tepid audiences coming out of the pandemic, ‘Condo-Monium’ strongly exceeded our sales expectations”. New Theatre Producer Joe R Fox

What we have is a well-acted, well-scripted, early version of a funny situation and farce comedy. You will enjoy yourself, but I suspect this show will grow and become even funnier. Alan Portner, Broadway World Punch, Kansas City

Frequently asked questions

Can we try before we buy?

Of course! All our plays and pantomimes have a free Preview Script available for download as an A4 pdf file that contains 60-75% of the full script. If you like what you read then you can buy an inexpensive e-script of the entire play (typically less than half the cost of a traditional printed script) which is licensed to you for your personal use. Purchasing a script copying licence allows you to make just enough copies to support rehearsals and performances.

All our musicals are included in our perusal service. Through this, representatives of producing organisations can request a USB Stick of perusal material  which comprise the script/libretto and piano/vocal score as PDF files; a Cast (or Studio) Recording as MP3 files and (where available) an MP4 file video of either the premiere production or of a subsequent production.

Some titles have the facility to read the entire script online on our website.

Do we need a Licence To Perform?

The simple answer is, yes.

Under the international laws of copyright, you must be in possession of a valid, unexpired licence before performing any piece of theatre unless the owner or managers of the copyright has waived their rights.

Why do you insist on providing a formal royalties quotation?

When you request a quotation, it is logged in our system, it forms part of an orderly queue and protects your place in that queue should multiple licensing requests occur for the same show.
