Synopsis
from
Dramatic
Publishing:
Comedy.
Adapted
by
Christopher Sergel.
From
the
book
by
Frank Gilbreth and
Ernestine Gilbreth Carey
published
in
1948.
Suppose
you're
an
attractive
high
school
girl
and
you're
not
only
a
member
of
a
large
and
unique
family
but
your
father
is,
in
fact,
one
of
the
great
pioneers
of
industrial
efficiency.
Then
suppose
he
decides,
for
no
apparent
reason,
to
apply
his
unorthodox
methods
to
you
and
to
the
rest
of
your
big
family.
The
results
are
terribly
embarrassing,
funny
and—it
must
be
admitted—extremely
effective!
To
Anne,
the eldest daughter,
the
chief
effect
seems
to
be
that
of
making
them
seem
ridiculous
to
everyone
else
at
school—especially
to
the
boys!
Dad
pushes
ahead
with
better
organization
for
his
large
and
delightful
family.
He
uses
a
rug
as
an
imaginary
bathtub
to
demonstrate
how
to
take
a
bath
more efficiently and
appoints
a
utilities
officer
to
levy
fines
on
wasters
of
electricity.
This
true
story
is
told
through
the
eyes
of
two
of
the
siblings,
Frank
and
Ernestine.
At
times
Cheaper
by
the
Dozen
is
uproariously funny,
extremely
heartwarming
and
touching
at
others.
Most
of
all
it
is
great
entertainment.
