A house on the beach at Santa Monica was the residence for many years of two famous film stars: Cary Grant and Randolph Scott. Fan magazines of the period showed them in apparent domestic bliss: doing the dishes, raiding the fridge, enjoying an evening by the fire, larking in their pool. No, these stars weren't married. Such a union barely was conceived of at the time. They were two handsome bachelors "saving on rent" by living together. Or so the movie-going public was led to believe. Part fact, part fiction, and based on extensive research, this new play speculates on what might have gone on in that posh ocean-side house. Only the residents themselves knew what actually transpired there. Rumors at the time linked them romantically with many celebrities--of both sexes. It seems that everyone who knew them had their own opinions about who was doing what with whom. Yet the two men and their families always insisted that they were merely "good friends." This funny and moving two-act play presents a fresh perspective on one of Hollywood's most tantalizing mysteries. It requires one set and a minimum of five actors.
