SYNOPSIS:
Based on the 1988 film, Dirty Rotten Scoundrels centers on two competing con men living on the French Riviera. At first, the suave and experienced Lawrence Jameson takes the rookie con man, Freddy, under his wing. But soon, Freddy tries to compete directly with Lawrence. The competition comes to a peak when they agree that the first con man to extract $50,000 from the female heiress, Christine Colgate, wins and the other must leave town forever. Nominated for 11 Tony Awards with a score by, David Yasbek, composer of THE FULL MONTY, the show earned a Tony Award for Best Leading Actor in a Musical for Norbert Leo Butz as "Freddy", and DIRTY ROTTEN SCOUNDRELS delighted audiences for over a year and half on Broadway.
