Different Stages Presents TOO MANY HUSBANDS at The Vortex, Opens 7/16

Different Stages closes its 2010-2011 season with W. Somerset Maugham's comedy TOO MANY HUSBANDS. A fast and frivolous comedy, the plot focuses on Victoria, a delectably pretty but ruthlessly self-centered young woman whose husband, William, was reported killed three years earlier in World War I. But William is not dead; he is on his way to London for a reunion with his wife, unaware that she is now married to his best friend, Freddie. The situation is complicated further by the discovery that the avaricious Victoria already has a third husband in view, a rich entrepreneur, for who she plans to dump both Freddie and William, feeling she has made sacrifice enough for the war effort. Through their ingenuity the two friends finally win their freedom and Victoria her wealthy third husband.

Directed by Norman Blumensaadt (The Night of the Iguana), Too Many Husbands features Martina Ohlhauser (Hay Fever) as Victoria, Joe Hartman (MilkMilkLeomnade) as Freddie and Brian Villalobos (The Crucible) as William. Also featured are Tony Salinas (The Night of the Iguana) as the rich entrepreneur, Lydia Blanco (My Visit With MGM) as Mrs. Shuttleworth, Paula Gilbert (An Inspector Calls) as a cook, Phoebe Greene ( The Night of the Iguana) as the parlor maid, and Ashley McNerney as the nanny. Phil Cole (The Skin of Our Teeth) and Julie Winston-Thomas (Spider's Web) play the divorce lawyer and his assistant. Also included are Amy Lewis (The Skin of Our Teeth) as a manicurist and Wade Belew as a delivery boy.
