Theatre at the Center's 2013 season tees off with the Chicago area premiere of the hilariously farcical THE FOX ON THE FAIRWAY. The play will run February 14 through March 24 at 1040 Ridge Road, Munster, with a press performance Sunday, February 17 at 7 p.m. Written as a homage by Ken Ludwig (CRAZY FOR YOU, LEND ME A TENOR, MOON OVER BUFFALO) to the great English farces of the 1930s and 1940s, THE FOX ON THE FAIRWAY takes audiences on a sidesplitting romp which pulls the rug out from underneath the stuffy denizens of a private country club. Filled with mistaken identities, high-stakes wagering, and over-the-top romantic shenanigans, it's a furiously paced comedy that recalls the Marx Brothers' classics. Renowned for his direction of farces, Theatre at the Center's Artistic Director William Pullinsi will take the helm of this play starring Lance Baker as "Bingham", Linda Gillum as "Pamela", Norm Boucher as "Dickie Bell", Michael Mahler as "Justin", Kate Bergeron as "Louise", and Laura Freeman as "Muriel".
