“IT MUST BE VERY WONDERFUL, SIR, TO HAVE ALMOST ALL MANKIND AT YOUR DISPOSAL.” THIS SMASH HIT from our 2008 Season returns — and it’s about time! In this fast-paced comedy, the clock starts ticking for a powerful bank president when the young heiress under his care announces her secret marriage to a Communist taxi driver. So what does a Chief Executive do? Simply transform this wholly unsuitable suitor into a perfectly well-bred, well-dressed, well-spoken son-in-law — all in under an hour! Lorne Kennedy returns as The President in the show critics called a “must-see”, “can’t-miss”, “rolling-in-the-aisles”, “pitch-perfect” production. “The dazzling combo of Morwyn Brebner’s fizzing adaptation, Lorne Kennedy’s tarantella-like performance, surrounded by ensemble members changing hats on a dime under Blair William’s direction was perfection that simply demanded to be seen again!” JM This play is recommended for ages 11+. |
