The grande dame of all farces, evoking modern memories of "Fawlty Towers" and "Noises Off", this masterpiece of farce is one of the funniest plays ever written. Set in 1910 France, Yvonne Chandel (Lisa Picone)is convinced that her husband Victor-Emmanuel (Jason Kirkpatrick) is unfaithful. She sets a trap for him with the help of her best friend Lucienne Homenidies de Histangua (Angie Joachim), wife of the hot-headed Don Carlos Homenides de Histangua (Randy Maggiore). Receiving a mysterious letter, Victor-Emmanuel and his doctor Finache (Vatican Lokey) send Romain Tournel (Keith Launey) to meet up with a mysterious woman at The Pretty Pussy Inn. All of the great tenets of classic farce are here, as funny today as when Feydeau first wrote the show. Also starring Kyle Daigrepont, T. Joe Seibert, Liz Mills, Mark Burton, Morrey McElroy, Mary Pauley, Butch Caire, and P.J. McKinnie.
