The Staple of News

About the show

Uncle and nephew Pennyboy compete for wealthy Lady Pecunia while a disguised Pennyboy Cantor watches his family’s conduct. The nephew and his companions visit Cymbal’s News Staple, a satirical news agency, and devise a Canting College to expose the insider language used by special interests. After a villain’s scheme is thwarted and the miserly uncle is mocked into madness, repentance and reconciliation restore the household.
