The Templeton Teapot: A Farce in One Act

The Templeton household is about to boil over. When Hilda Templeton refuses to marry the much older Professor Gates, instead chasing dreams of a modern, free-spirited life, she ignites a family crisis. But Gates isn't just interested in Hilda, he has his eye on the family's priceless Templeton Teapot, a heirloom worth far more than sentiment. Enter Eric Dean, the younger suitor with his own schemes, and suddenly the library is thick with mistaken identities, heated arguments, and a teapot that seems to be at the center of everyone's designs. A gleeful farce where nothing is as it seems and everyone has something to hide. Strong delivers a punchy period comedy about what happens when tradition collides with desire, and an heirloom becomes the unlikely prize in a battle of wits, hearts, and questionable motives. Perfect for readers who enjoy sharp, speedy comedies where the chaos is the point.
