FARCE/SATIRE. When a big city coffee chain arrives bearing free samples of coffee topped with whipped cream and sprinkles, the tranquil citizens of Tepid Town are transformed into crazed coffee drinkers hopelessly strung out on expensive designer coffee drinks like the “James Bond-Airy Free Hand-Shaken Not Stirred Quadruple Soy Latte.” Resolute in her belief that “coffee should be foul-tasting…like life,” Momma summons a ghost with her homemade Ouija board to drive the evil bean dealers out of town and discovers there may be more to these coffee drinks than whipped topping and sprinkles!
