THE LADIES MAN
Loosely adapted by: Charles Morey from a farce by Georges Feydeau
Directed by: Elizabeth Huffman
July 8-25, 2010
If you like Feydeau’s A Flea in Her Ear, you will delight in the delirious absurd madness of his first hit, The Ladies Man. In Belle Époque Paris, the recently married Dr. Hercule Molineaux tells “one, tiny, little, hardly noticeable lie to cover an innocent but embarrassing indiscretion. From that single untruth tumbles a cascade of increasingly convoluted deceptions, misunderstandings and mistaken identities, all adding up to a hilariously zany and infectiously charming farce.
“The Ladies Man is an explosion of inspired craziness… I can’t remember the last time I laughed so hard.” — The Wall Street Journal
