Overview

What would happen if a Noel Coward play intersected with a Marx Brothers film? You would get Eric Christopher Hoelle's Exits and Entrances, a farcical comedy set in the pre-World War II austere world where manners mattered and a stiff upper lip ruled. Dickey returns home to introduce his new bride Mable to his mum and dad. It turns out that Mable is the former mob moll for a NYC based Mafioso, Lou, that wants her back. He sends Sharky and Moose to bring back his girl. Havoc ensues and the comedy goes from slapstick to absurd. The Father is a Nazi sympathizer, Mom is an over bearing social climber, Dicky is a rose color glasses fool for Mable until the maid steps in. See how it all resolves itself! Cast Size: 11 roles with 7M/4F. Running Time: 120 minutes. Royalty: $50.00 per performance. Appropriate for college and adult audiences.

Author Information

Eric Christopher Hoelle started in show business initially as an actor but soon after felt restricted by the type casting that occurs due to the narrow mindedness of casting directors and writers. It is at that time that he made his first attempts to write the roles that he felt were more suited toward his artistic and intellectual interests. Exits and Entrances was the first of these efforts to see life. It is a story that starts out as a play of manners and turns into a broad comedy. Mr. Hoelle often likes to take his audiences on a journey that seems to begin in on direction and ends at a location they never imagined. Mr.. Hoelle is also interested in Film and screen writing and has worked on several film scripts. His film Scenes from a Marriage is in pre -production as of this writing. Mr. Hoelle currently resides and works in the Greater New York area.
