THEATRE + COMEDY

Let the games begin! The delicious comedy Dirty Rotten Scoundrels takes the stage at The Grand 1894 Opera House for one performance on Saturday, March 21, at 8 pm.

Set on the glorious and glamorous French Riviera, this hilarious comedy follows the antics of two unforgettable con artists as they take on the lifestyles of the rich and shameless!

"Finally, a big new musical that Broadway can feel thrilled to call its own," raves Linda Winer of Newsday.

Based on the popular 1988 film, Dirty Rotten Scoundrels centers on two con men living on the French Riviera.

The first is the suave and sophisticated Lawrence Jameson, who makes his lavish living by talking rich ladies out of their money. The other, a small-time crook named Freddy Benson, more humbly swindles women by waking their compassion with fabricated stories about his grandmother’s failing health.

After meeting on a train, they unsuccessfully attempt to work together only to find that this small French town isn't big enough for the two of them. They agree on a settlement: The first one to extract $50,000 from a young female target, heiress Christine Colgate, wins and the other must leave town.

A hilarious battle of cons ensues, that will keep audiences laughing, humming and guessing to the end!

"A crowd-pleaser of the first order: Mightily musical and terribly funny," applauds Variety. Come experience "One of the liveliest, funniest, best-performed musicals in years!" (New York Post) at The Grand!
