Santa Fe Sunshine
Author(s):
Preston Jones
The place is Santa Fe, New Mexico; the time the late 1950s; and the scene is the adobe house of Gino Bruno, a genial but largely untalented sculptor who believes that, at long last, he has created a masterpiece. His long-time friend, an equally bumbling painter named Claude Nordley, refuses to look at Bruno's sculpture, and professes to hate everybody and everything--except himself, and the cheap local wine known as "Santa Fe Sunshine." In fact no one gets a peek at Bruno's creation until it is unveiled at a disastrous party arranged by a scheming gallery owner and attended by a rich hillbilly art patron and an assortment of resident oddballs: a homosexual poet; a wood carver skilled at faking local artifacts; a college-girl folk singer; and her over-intense boyfriend, a would-be writer. As the wine flows, and personalities clash, the play reaches its very funny climax--in which all present learn something about life, themselves, and the vagrant nature of the muses they would serve.
