Does Deathtrap count as a melodrama?

My dad acted in a fun melodrama in our town playhouse when I was a kid. “Dirty Work at the Crossroads.” Have never heard of it being performed since.

I remember they needed a tree stump for the set, and my hillbilly friend’s dad made his money cutting firewood, probably illegally. Dad asked, and the guy supplied a big stump and came to see probably his first and only theatrical production outside of the Grand Ol Opry. He loved the show and was so proud to see his name in the program.

I recall I think my dad sang a song called “I Saw Esau.”

I don't get political emails. I have only received one political text. But I'm so sick of the ads on Youtube.

Our phone account is under my DH's name, so he's getting the texts. My daughter's phone is under my name, so she gets all the texts, addressed to me.

The kids had a terrible trek down to North Carolina, a usual 8 -9 hour drive turned into 16 due to five different accidents ( in which they were NOT involved) stalling traffic.

Cyrano de Bergerac


I love this play, and I would never consider it a melodrama. And that's my two cents.

A romance? I guess I considered it melodrama strictly because of the ending. I could be wrong.

Oh my.  Did the audience think he was funny?

WOW!  I rarely watch Youtube so I don't see the adds.  While I get plenty of emails, I mostly receive texts.
