An Evening with
The Port Angeles Community Players

Another Michael Parker farce is all audiences need to know to start buying tickets."

-- Palm Beach Post

"An entertaining evening of deftly executed comedy."

-- Delray Times

"A veritable laugh riot."

-- Boca Raton News

 

The Port Angeles Community Players have again graciously agreed to put on a private evening of live theater entertainment just for the Esprit crowd, and your ticket is included as part of the full-week or half-week conference registration!

This year's play will be "Whose Wives Are They, Anyway?", a comedy that involves a few themes unique to our group.

Synopsis

The Ashley Maureen Cosmetics Company has been sold and two of its vice presidents, David McGrachen and John Baker, have planned a weekend off before the new C.E.O. arrives on Monday. With their wives safely off on a shopping spree in New York City, they check into The Oakfield Golf and Country Club intending to "golf their brains out." They unexpectedly encounter their new boss, Ms. Hutchison, and she insists on meeting the wives, commenting blithely "no one who went golfing for a weekend without his wife would ever work for me."

So ... David and John have to produce wives. John persuades Tina, the hotel's sexy receptionist, to play the role of his wife, but the only one who can pretend to be David's wife is John. Inevitably everything goes wrong as John moves in and out of bedrooms, changing from male to female at a frantic pace. Hilarious chaos ensues when the hotel phone system goes on the blink, Tina has too much champagne and can't keep her clothes on, and, yes, the real wives arrive!

The Port Angeles Playhouse is a couple miles from the Red Lion, so transportation will be provided to and from the hotel. Curtain is at 7:30, for those who prefer to drive or carpool on their own. (Note that dinner is on your own this evening, so plan accordingly.)

On Thursday, it's your chance to paint the town!

 

"Whose Wives Are They, Anyway?" is written by Michael Parker. Presented by the Port Angeles Community Players, under the direction of Barbara Frederick. Performance rights granted by Samuel French Inc (45 W. 25th St., NY, NY 10010).
