For fans of Noises Off, The Play That Goes Wrong, and Private Lives.
It’s 1923 and Sylvia wants more than to be whisked away to this charming English countryside cottage for her stale annual tryst, dammit! When her lover (and brother-in-law) Beau hesitates to commit, Sylvia throws a wrench into their carefully constructed secret with a series of scandalous telegrams, setting off a chain reaction of revelations and turning this tranquil cottage into a hotbed of hilarity!
The second production since its Broadway premiere, this brand-new, side-splitting romp is an outrageous tale of sex, betrayal, and desire. When the spouses and lovers arrive, secrets multiply, and comedic chaos ensues as the truth unravels. Will Sylvia take charge of her own destiny? Find out in this razor-sharp and witty romantic screwball comedy.
Oh, and fair warning for a potential murder.
