When an anonymous letter provokes a hilarious chain of mistaken identities, seductive trickery runs hysterically amuck, and the sultry, shadowed rooms of a scandalous Parisian hotel will never be quite the same.The design team for A Flea in Her Ear includes set design by Alexander Dodge, costume design by Gregory Gale, lighting design by Rui Rita, and original music and sound design by John Gromada, Stephen Gabis is dialect coach and Rick Sordelet is fight director. The production stage manager is Donald Fried.WTF's current Main Stage production, She Loves Me, continues through July 12, 2008. On the Nikos Stage beginning July 9, Thomas Kail directs the World Premiere of Broke-ology, by Nathan Louis Jackson (through July 20).Photo Credit Walter McBride/Retna
