"Blinded by the Knight" is a one act play script from the play "Between Good and Evil" by D. M. Larson about a nerdy guy who finds love at a comic book store.
Blinded by the Knight is a lively comedy that takes place in a comic book store where a shy, nerdy Howard has his chance at love when a glamorous beauty queen comes in for a photo shoot. Against the backdrop of comics, cosplay, and an over-the-top “fairy godfather” narrator, absurd mishaps — from accidental blindness to silly misunderstandings — keep the laughs coming. As Howard fumbles through helping the beauty queen and navigating bizarre moments, unexpected connections form in the most offbeat ways. Filled with slapstick humor, lovable characters, and comic-store chaos, this play celebrates awkward moments, surprising friendships, and finding love in unexpected places.
