Next Production:
The Nerd
By: Larry Shue
Directed by: Rebecca Robinson
Produced by: Bill Guy
An aspiring young architect in Terre Haute, Indiana, Willum Cubbert has often told his
friends about the debt he owes to Rick Steadman, a fellow ex-GI whom he has never met
but who saved has life after he was seriously wounded in Vietnam. He has written to Rick
to say that, as long as he is alive, "you will have somebody on Earth who will do anything
for you"—so Willum is delighted when Rick shows up unexpectedly at his apartment on
the night of his thirty-fourth birthday party. But his delight soon fades as it becomes
apparent that Rick is a hopeless "nerd"—a bumbling oaf with no social sense, little
intelligence and less tact. And Rick stays on and on, his continued presence among
Willum and his friends leading to one uproarious incident after another, until the
normally placid Willum finds himself contemplating violence.
