This
rambunctious musical comedy is based on the 1973 closing of one of
Texas’ most famous pleasure palaces known euphemistically as “Edna’s
Ranch Boarding House,” also known for generations as the fabled
Chicken Ranch of La Grange, Texas. The brothel is under the
proprietorship of Miss Mona Stangley. While taking care of her
girls, she is also on good terms with the local sheriff, Ed Earl
Dodd. When crusading television reporter Melvin P. Thorpe decides to
make the illegal activity an issue, political ramifications cause
the place to be closed down. Memorable songs include "Hard Candy
Christmas", "Twenty-Four Hours of Lovin", and "A Bus From Amarillo".
