Youtahn-eeks: The Spoken Language of the Ancients • a 15-minute play

Youtahn-eeks: The Spoken Language of the Ancients • a 15-minute play

by James Arrington

A comic sci/fi send-up of scientific or academic studies, sophisticated scholarly presentation, but mainly, the accent and explanations of current speech patterns used in the Intermountain West – “Sogonapmit” is Mount Timpanogos in Utah County. In the future the discovery is momentous and has been carefully scrutinized by scholars of the future. In their digs they have unearthed a videotape from the Farley Family Reunion. These serious scholars develop scenes and interplay as well as some audience participation. This play is a crack-up!
