Playhouse Theatre Co.: DIRTY ROTTEN SCOUNDRELS

The ultimate con is on and it’s been set to music! Lawrence Jameson cons ladies; Freddy Benson cons women. Both men are unscrupulous. After they meet on a train they soon discover that the small town on the French Rivera isn’t big enough for the both of them. What ensues is outright naughty, bawdy fun as a frantic game of one-upmanship takes us on a roller-coaster ride of hilarity.
Starring: Elena Juatco as Christine Colgate; Andrew Wheeler  as Lawrence Jameson; Josh Epstein as Freddy Benson.
Max Reimer, who brought us the immensely entertaining "The Drowsy Chaperone" directs. Mr. Reimer is also the Artistic Director of the Playhouse Theatre Co.
