Following the Tony-nominated revival of Lend Me a Tenor on Broadway, Ken Ludwig's new play, A Fox On the Fairway, debuted at the Signature Theatre in Washington, D.C., on October 19, 2010.
A tribute to the great English farces of the 1930s and 1940s, A Fox On the Fairway takes audiences on a hilarious romp which pulls the rug out from underneath the stuffy denizens of a private country club.
Filled with mistaken identities, slamming doors, and over-the-top romantic shenanigans, it's a furiously paced comedy that recalls the Marx Brothers' classics.
[2] Peter Marks found the plot mechanical and the play too full of "shamelessly recycled sex, sports and alcohol jokes.
Directed by David Saint, the cast featured Amy Hohn, Michael Mastro, Peter Scolari, Mary Testa, Reggie Gowland and Lisa McCormick.
