Two con men. One heiress. The opportunity of a lifetime. Lawrence Jameson makes his lavish living by talking rich ladies out of their money. Freddy Benson more humbly swindles women by fabricating stories about his grandmother's failing health. But the French Riviera isn’t big enough for both of them, so they agree on a winner-take-all wager: the first person to successfully steal $50,000 from the young heiress Christine Colgate will get to stay in town, while the loser has to leave. Based on the 1988 film of the same name, this hysterical battle of cons will “con”-stantly have you in stitches! A smash-hit musical comedy comprised of hilarity and wacky hi-jinks!
