The Play!” I was Alex the Skunk Merchant. I didn't think about Alex's backstory (like I did for the previous character I played – Aunt Rose in “Inlaws Outlaws and Other People That Should be Shot”) until the person playing the giant asked me where my skunks come from. Good question. My off-the-top-of-my-head answer: I send my Skunk Squad out into the Enchanted Forest every night to get the number of skunks we need to have at the market the next day. It's usually only one or two because skunks can be quite unruly if there are too many of them. It's very important that the Skunk Squad is actually in the Enchanted Forest, too, because only s...
