Tilly, a bank teller in a small Midwestern town, is consumed by melancholy. But not just any melancholy: Tilly’s is a bold, sassy, sexy, hopelessly romantic melancholy that recalls the glamour of glossy-eyed European film stars from the 1950s; the kind of sweet sadness that prompts her to gaze wistfully out of windows,speak in sighs, and swoon onto divans. In fact, Tilly’s melancholy is so exquisite that everyone she meets becomes infatuated with her – her tailor, her hairdresser, and even her therapist succumb to her perpetual sadness. But all havoc breaks loose when Tilly inexplicably discovers happiness, leaving her would-be suitors despondent. "Melancholy Play" is a witty, often touching, sometimes surreal commentary on the American ideal of happiness.
