A madcap musical comedy, Lucky Stiff, written by Lynn Ahrens and Stephen Flaherty, isWeekend at Bernie’s meets You’ve Got Mail! Lucky Stiff tells the story of Harry, an English shoe salesman who receives the unexpected news that he has inherited a fortune from his late Uncle Anthony, on the condition that he takes his uncle’s dead body on a special trip to Monte Carlo. If Harry refuses to fulfill all his uncle’s last wishes exactly, the inheritance will go to the Universal Dog Home of Brooklyn. It doesn’t help matters that Rita, Tony’s lover with whom he embezzled $6 million behind her husband’s back, and her brother Vinnie, who she blamed for the crime, have their own schemes to get at the money. Based on the novel The Man Who Broke the Bank at Monte Carlo by Michael Butterworth, Lucky Stiff is a life-affirming comedy served up with a dash of danger featuring romance, disguises, farcical chases, and an omnipresent corpse. Featuring a tuneful score by Stehen Flaherty and Lynn Ahrens (songwriting team of Ragtime, Seussical, and Once On This Island), and an ensemble cast of zany characters, Lucky Stiff is an audience charmer. .
Goshen Players is at 2 North Street Goshen CT 06756, Goshen .
