The Camping Guy (A One Act Comedy): A One Act Comedy (Script Version)

by Dianne Greenlay

Overview

"I opened my business magazine, and that's when I saw the ad.
Executive De-stressing. Get away from it all.
Guided one-on-one wilderness camping.
Our motto is "If you're not living on the edge,
You're taking up TOO MUCH ROOM!"
Call Earl - the Camping Guy!
So I did, and I signed up on the spot. I'd never been camping before. I was really looking forward to it and Earl - well, Earl, he was quite the guy."
Reminiscent of television's and theater's The Odd Couple, "The Camping Guy" follows the misadventures of Earl, an experienced woodsman, and Johnson, his inept city slicker client, as they spend a camping weekend in the wilds of the Rockies.
What was intended to be a de-stressing weekend soon turns into a distressing one, as these two mismatched campers find themselves engaged in unintended and hilarious situations.
Male bonding has never been more funny, nor more dangerous!
A Fringe Festival audience favorite, "The Camping Guy" has simple set requirements and a small cast, making it a favorite of both audiences and back stage production crews alike.
If you like camping, or if you hate camping, you're going to love The Camping Guy"!

About the Author

Born and raised on the Canadian prairies, Dianne Greenlay saves lives by day (besides being a writer, she is a physiotherapist in a remote sole charge clinic as well as a retired EMT), and she tells lies by night (as any entertaining fiction writer would do). She is also a playwright and Creative Director of the long-running community theater group, Darkhorse Theatre. However her biggest achievement is having successfully raised a family of 6 children in a home with only one bathroom (and everyone got out alive.)
Straying into the genre of humor/comedy, Dianne is the author of "The Camping Guy", which is available as both a one act comedy (live theater script) and a short story. As an author, she has also won multiple awards for her historical action novels, "Quintspinner - A Pirate's Quest" and "Deadly Misfortune".
Dianne began writing her first novel to fulfill one of the items on her bucket list. It was either that, or learn to play the bagpipes. Her husband is grateful for her choice. She is fluent in at least her mother tongue and she thanks her fierce English teachers for that.
